Oligopoly Pricing: Old Ideas and New Tools
Vives, Xavier - The MIT Press
-theoretic approach to develop a theory of oligopoly pricing. Vives begins by relating classic contributions to the field--including those …The "oligopoly problem"--the question of how prices are formed when the market contains only a few competitors--is one … of Cournot, Bertrand, Edgeworth, Chamberlin, and Robinson--to modern game theory. In his discussion of basic game …

Link formation in cooperative situations
Dutta, B.; van den Nouweland, C.G.A.M.; Tijs, S.H. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 1995
In this paper we study the endogenous formation of cooperation structures or communication graphs between players in a superadditive TU game. For each cooperation structure that is formed, the payoffs to the players are determined by an exogenously given solution. We model the process of...

On te generic stability of mixed strategies in asymmetric contests
Bhaskar, V. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 1995
Although a mixed strategy can never be evolutionarily stable in a truly asymmetric contest, examples show that mixed strategies can satisfy the weaker criterion on neutral stability. This paper shows that such examples are rare, and, generically, a mixed strategy is unstable. We apply the result...

Game theory : The next stage
van Damme, Eric - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 1995
This paper surveys some recent developments in (non-cooperative) game theory and provides an outlook on the near future … of that theory. In particular, attention is focused on the limitations inherent in normative game theory and on attempts … to construct a behavioral version of the theory that incorporates aspects of procedural and bounded rationality. It is …

A perfectness concept for multicriteria games
Borm, Peter; van Megen, F.; Tijs, S.H. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 1995
This paper considers a refinement of equilibria for multicriteria games based on the perfectness concept of Selten (1975). Existence of perfect equilibrium points is shown and several characterizations are provided. Furthermore, contrary to the result for equilibria for multicriteria games, an...

Is altruism evolutionarily stable ?
Bester, H.; Güth, W. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 1994
We develop an evolutionary approach to explain altruistic preferences. Given their preferences, individuals interact rationally with each other. By comparing the success of players with different preferences, we investigate whether evolution favors altruistic or selfish attitudes. The outcome...
