In the context of anonymous games (i.e., games where the payoff of a player is, apart from his/her own action, determined by the distribution of the actions made by the other players), we present a model in which, generically (in a precise sense), finite-player games have strict pure strategy...

The average voting procedure reflects the weighted average of expressed opinions in [0,1]. Participants typically behave strategically. We evaluate the discrepancy between the average taste and the average vote. If the population is sufficiently large, it is possible to construct approximations...

Der Nobelpreis für Wirtschaftswissenschaften 2007 wurde an Leonid Hurwicz, Eric S. Maskin und Roger B. Myerson für Ihre grundlegenden Beiträge zur Mechanismus-Design-Theorie vergeben. Worin liegt der Erfolg der Mechanismus-Design-Theorie begründet? Was sind ihre Perspektiven?

The aim of the paper is to compare the sensitivity of a government's fiscal policy and a central bank's monetary policy, which are in Nash equilibrium in the case of a non-cooperative game between the government and the central bank in Czechia, Hungary, and Romania. The analysis for each country...

We analyze the behavior of electricity generation groups that make investment and production decisions in a liberalized market scenario by introducing long-term contracts, in a context where there is a high level of market concentration. In this way, a dynamic deterministic model of imperfect...

Hepatitis B (HBV) is one of the most common infectious diseases, with a worldwide annual incidence of over 250 million people. About one-third of the cases are in China. While China made significant efforts to implement a nationwide HBV vaccination program for newborns, a significant number of...

We introduce a non-cooperative game model in which players' decision nodes are partially ordered by a dependence relation, which directly captures informational dependencies in the game. In saying that a decision node v is dependent on decision nodes v1,…,vk, we mean that the information...

This research aimed to replace the pairwise comparison function used in Leoneti [2016] with a new function inspired on the exponential model of prospect theory and to perform a comparative analysis to verify the hypothesis that a better performance of the utility function would be possible from...
