Generalizations of the General Lotto and Colonel Blotto games

Kovenock, Daniel J.; Roberson, Brian - 2015

In this paper, we generalize the General Lotto game and the Colonel Blotto game to allow for battlefield valuations that are heterogeneous across battlefields and asymmetric across players, and for the players to have asymmetric resource constraints. We completely characterize Nash equilibrium...

In this paper, we generalize the General Lotto game (budget constraints satisfied in expectation) and the Colonel Blotto game (budget constraints hold with probability one) to allow for battlefield valuations that are heterogeneous across battlefields and asymmetric across players, and for the...

Strategic Defense and Attack for Series and Parallel Reliability Systems: Rejoinder

Kovenock, Dan; Roberson, Brian - Krannert School of Management, Purdue University - 2012

In our original comment, we showed that Hausken's characterization of Nash equilibrium is invalid for much of the parameter space examined and provided necessary conditions for his solution to hold. Most of the comments in his reply are either tangential or irrelevant. However, several of the...
