Public information : relevance or salience?
Invernizzi, Giovanna M. - In: Games 11 (2020) 1/4, pp. 1-28
How does salient public information affect voters' behavior? In a majoritarian voting game with common preferences … (regardless of accuracy). A simple lab experiment contradicts both hypotheses - subjects tend to follow public information when it … to the voting decision. These findings are important because the salience of public information is easily manipulable by …

Time-preference heterogeneity and multiplicity of equilibria in two-group bargaining
Cardona-Coll, Daniel; Rubí-Barceló, Antoni - In: Games 7 (2016) 2, pp. 1-17
We consider a multilateral bargaining game in which the agents can be classified into two groups according to their instantaneous preferences. In one of these groups there is one agent with a different discount factor. We analyze how this time-preference heterogeneity may generate multiplicity...

An adaptive model of demand adjustment in weighted majority games
Montero, María; Possajennikov, Alexandre - In: Games 13 (2022) 1, pp. 1-17
This paper presents a simple adaptive model of demand adjustment in cooperative games and analyzes this model in weighted majority games. In the model, a randomly chosen player sets her demand to the highest possible value subject to the demands of other coalition members being satisfied. This...

Ideal reactive equilibrium
Sadanand, Asha B. - In: Games 10 (2019) 2/19, pp. 1-18
Refinements of the Nash equilibrium have followed the strategy of extending the idea of subgame perfection to incomplete information games. This has been achieved by appropriately restricting beliefs at unreached information sets. Each new refinement gives stricter and more...

Agency equilibrium
Newton, Jonathan - In: Games 10 (2019) 1/14, pp. 1-15
Agency may be exercised by different entities (e.g., individuals, firms, households). A given individual can form part of multiple agents (e.g., he may belong to a firm and a household). The set of agents that act in a given situation might not be common knowledge. We adapt the standard model of...

Example of a finite game with no Berge equilibria at all
Pykacz, Jarosław; Bytner, Paweł; Frąckiewicz, Piotr - In: Games 10 (2019) 1/7, pp. 1-4
The problem of the existence of Berge equilibria in the sense of Zhukovskii in normal-form finite games in pure and in mixed strategies is studied. The example of a three-player game that has Berge equilibrium neither in pure, nor in mixed strategies is given.

On adaptive heuristics that converge to correlated equilibrium
Bhattacharya, Ayan - In: Games 10 (2019) 1/6, pp. 11
I study the path properties of adaptive heuristics that mimic the natural dynamics of play in a game and converge to the set of correlated equilibria. Despite their apparent differences, I show that these heuristics have an abstract representation as a sequence of probability distributions that...
