Compute the Nash equilibria of the following location game. There are two people who simultaneously select numbers between zero and one. Suppose player 1 chooses s1 and player 2 chooses s2 . If si < sj , then player i gets a payoff of (si + sj )>2 and player j obtains 1 − (si + sj )>2, for i = 1, 2. If s1 = s2 , then both players get a payoff of 1>2. Please make sure to explain why the Nash Equilibrium (if exists) is what it is.

13. Consider the following n-player game. Simultaneously and independently, the players each select either X, Y, or Z. The payoffs are defined as follows. Each player who selects X obtains a payoff equal to y, where y is the num- ber of players who select Z. Each player who selects Y obtains a payoff of 2a, where a is the number of players who select X. Each player who selects Z obtains a payoff of 3B, where ß is the...

Q2 Contribution Game Consider the following game. There are four players. Each player i (wherei 1,2,3,4) si multaneously and independently selects her contribution s E [0, 10]. Each player gets a benefit related to all of the players choices of s,'s, but incurs a cost related to her own contribution s In particular, the payoff to each player i is given by: ul (s1 , s2, s3, s.) = si + s2 + s3 + 84-0.5s (a) Find best response...

Games theory : Inside Oligopoly
In a two-player, one-shot, simultaneous-move game, each player can choose strategy A or strategy B. If both players choose strategy A, each earns a payoff of $400. If both players choose strategy B, each earns a payoff of $200. If player 1 chooses strategy A and player 2 chooses strategy B, then player 1 earns $100 and player 2 earns $600. If player 1 chooses strategy B and player 2 chooses strategy A, then player 1 earns $600 and player...

Two players are playing a game in which each player requests an amount of money, simultaneously. The amount must be an integer between 11 and 20, inclusive. Each player will receive the amount she requests in $s. A player will receive an additional amount of $20 if she asks an amount that is exactly 1 less than the other player’s amount. All of the above is common knowledge. a) Find the set of all pure-strategy Nash Equilibria. b) Suppose we...
