Evolutionary stability of first price auctions
Louge, Fernando; Riedel, Frank - 2010
This paper studies the evolutionary stability of the unique Nash equilibrium of a first price sealed bid auction. It is shown that the Nash equilibrium is not asymptotically stable under payoff monotonic dynamics for arbitrary initial popu- lations. In contrast, when the initial population...

Trade retaliation in a monetary-trade model
Whalley, John; Yu, Jun; Zhang, Shunming - 2009
We explore how outcomes of trade policy retaliation (Nash tariff games) are affected when trade simultaneously takes places geographically across countries and through time via financial intermediation. In such models deficits and surpluses in goods trade are endogenously determined, and...

Ambiguous act equilibria
Bade, Sophie - 2010
A game-theoretic framework that allows for explicitly randomized strategies is used to study the e ect of ambiguity aversion on equilibrium outcomes. The notions of 'independent strategies' as well as of 'common priors' are amended to render them applicable to games in which players lack...

Optimal tariffs, retaliation and the welfare loss from tariff wars in the Melitz model
Felbermayr, Gabriel; Jung, Benjamin; Larch, Mario - 2011
This paper characterizes analytically the optimal tariff of a large one-sector economy with monopolistic competition and firm heterogeneity in general equilibrium, thereby extending the small-country results of Demidova and Rodriguez-Clare (JIE, 2009) and the homogeneous firms framework of Gros...

The theory of implementation of social choice rules
Serrano, Roberto - 2003
. The theory of implementation or mechanism design formalizes this “social engineering” problem and provides answers to the … question just posed. I survey the theory of implementation in this article, emphasizing the results based on two behavioral …

The New Basel Accord and the Nature of Risk: A Game Theoretic Perspective
Siebe, Wilfried; Milde, Hellmuth; Broll, Udo; Bieta, Volker - 2007
– game theory is a useful set of tools for better understanding different risk settings. Embedded in a short history of the … Basel Accord in this article we introduce some basic ideas of game theory in the context of rating procedures in accordance … with Basel II. As well, some insight is given how game theory works. Here, the primary value of game theory stems from its …

Evolution and Refinement with Endogenous Mistake Probabilities
van Damme, Eric; Weibull, Jörgen W. - 1999
Bergin and Lipman (1996) show that the refinement effect from the random mutations in the adaptive population dynamics in Kandori, Mailath and rob (1993) and Young (1993) is due to restrictions on how these mutation rates vary across population states. We here model mutation rates as...
