Consider a first price auction for selling one item. There are n bidders. Each bidder i has a valuation vi for the item, which is privately known and drawn independently from a uniform distribution of interval [0,50]. Each bidder i bids a non-negative real number bi. The bidder who bids the highest number wins and if more than one bidder bid the highest, the winner is chosen uniformly at random. The winner gets the item and pays her bid. All...
Suppose you are a bidder in a first-price sealed-bid auction for a single object, where players submit bids simultaneously and the player who bid the highest wins the object and must pay his/her bid. Assume there are two other bidders, so this is a three-player game. You do not observe the valuations of the other bidders, but assume that you believe their valuations are identically and independently distributed according to a uniform distribution on the interval from 0 to 20....
Consider a second-price sealed-bid auction as the one analyzed in class. Suppose bidders' valuations are v1-10 and v2=10. Select all that apply. a. Bidding a value b1 equal to her own valuation vy is a weakly dominated strategy for bidder D. Both bidders submitting bids equal to 10 is a Nash equilibrium. C. One bidder submitting a bid equal to 10 and the other submitting a bid equal to 0 is a Nash equilibrium. d. Both bidders submitting bids equal...
2. Second Price Auction& Google Search Auction (18 points) A. (11 points) There are two bidders, bidder 1 and bidder 2, bidding for one object. Their valuations of the object (vi, v2) are simultaneously submit their bidding prices (b, by The one with the higher price wins the auction and pays the loser's price, the second highest price. (In answering the questions below, no detailed explanations are needed and you just need to directly give the conclusion.) independent. Each one...
Three (3) bidders participate in a first price, sealed bid auction satisfying all the assumptions of the independent private values model. Each knows his own value v ∈ [0, 1], but does not know anyone else's, and so must form beliefs. Suppose everyone thinks it is more likely a rival's value is high than low. Specifically, each player believes any other player's value is distributed on [0, 1] according to the cumulative distribution function F(v) = v3, and this is...
Consider a single-item auction with n bidders where n ≥ 3. The highest bidder wins the auction and pays the amount of the third highest bid. Show that this auction is not dominant strategy incentive compatible
3.6. Consider a first-price, sealed-bid auction in which the bid- ders' valuations are independently and uniformly distributed on (0,1). Show that if there are n bidders, then the strategy of bid- ding (n-1)/n times one's valuation is a symmetric Bayesian Nash equilibrium of this auction.
Scenario: Four friends–Tom, Bill, Jeff, and Roger–are participating in an English auction. Tom values the good being auctioned at $500, Bill values it at $210, Jeff values it at $350, and Roger values it at $625. 150) Refer to the scenario above. If they are the only bidders in the auction and each of them uses his optimal strategy, who will win? A) Tom B) Roger C) Bill D) Jeff 151) Refer to the scenario above. If they are the...
Consider a first-price sealed-bid auction as the one analyzed in class. Suppose bidders' valuations are v1-10 and v2=10. Suppose bidder 2 submits a bid b2 10. Then, in a Nash equilibrium in pure strategies bidder 1 must be submitting a bid equal to equilibrium, bidder 1's payoff is equal to beuas bnlendninand In this Nash (please, enter numerical values only, for example: 4).
Helpme solving Bayes-Nash equilibrium problem 5. Consider a first price auction (with independent private values) where there are two bidders, A and B. There are two possible types of bidders, a bidder with a 60 with probability 0.5 and 100 with probability 0.5. Bids can come only in increments of 10. Consider the following strategy profile: "Each bidder bids 50 if the valuation is 60 and bids 70 if the valuation is 100." Is this strategy pair a Bayes-Nash equilibrium?...
