STRATEGIC EFFECTS OF A BORDER TAX ADJUSTMENT

EYLAND, TERRY; ZACCOUR, GEORGES - In: International Game Theory Review (IGTR) 14 (2012) 03, pp. 1250016-1

Carbon leakage and competitiveness concerns are some of the main reasons why an international environmental agreement is lacking to fight climate change. Many studies discussed the adoption of a border tax adjustment (BTA) to allow countries that would like to implement a carbon tax to level the...

ADVERTISING DECISIONS IN A VERTICAL DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL

VISCOLANI, BRUNO - In: International Game Theory Review (IGTR) 11 (2009) 03, pp. 273-284

A manufacturer and a retailer are the members of a simple distribution channel for a particular product in a segmented market. The advertising efforts of the two agents have a joint effect on the goodwill of the different market segments and then on the demand. The channel members aim at...

A LARGE POPULATION, GAME THEORETIC MODEL OF JOB-SEARCH WITH DISCOUNTING

RAMSEY, DAVID M. - In: International Game Theory Review (IGTR) 11 (2009) 03, pp. 301-320

This paper considers a large population, game theoretic job-search problem, in which the ratio of job searchers to jobs is α. There are n distinct types of jobs, each with an associated value. Each searcher can only accept one job and cannot recall a job previously rejected. Once a searcher...

A VALUE FOR PERT PROBLEMS

BERGANTIÑOS, GUSTAVO; VIDAL-PUGA, JUAN - In: International Game Theory Review (IGTR) 11 (2009) 04, pp. 419-436

The PERT (Program Evaluation Review Technique) is a operational research tool used to schedule and coordinate activities in a complex project. We present two values for measuring the importance of each activity. Both values are obtained through an axiomatic characterization using three...

A STRATEGIC ANALYSIS OF SPECULATIVE TRADE IN A TWO-SIDED ASSET MARKET WITH INFORMATION DIVERSITY

ROCKENBACH, BETTINA - In: International Game Theory Review (IGTR) 07 (2005) 02, pp. 151-170

The impossibility of speculative trade result (Milgrom and Stokey, 1982) provokes the questions why traders care about their private information, if they cannot profit from it and how the aggregate information can then be reflected in REE prices. This paper answers these questions by analyzing a...

DYNAMIC ONLINE AND OFFLINE CHANNEL PRICING FOR HETEROGENEOUS CUSTOMERS IN VIRTUAL ACCEPTANCE

FRUCHTER, GILA E.; TAPIERO, CHARLES S. - In: International Game Theory Review (IGTR) 07 (2005) 02, pp. 137-150

We consider a manufacturer's dual distributions channels consisting on the one hand of a virtual (online) channel operated directly by a manufacturer and on the other hand of a real (offline) channel operated by an intermediate retailer. Customers are assumed heterogeneous in their virtual...

A MODIFIED DUOPOLY GAME MODEL IN BULK COMMODITY TRANSPORTATION MARKETS

YANG, ZHIYONG; PERAKIS, A. N. - In: International Game Theory Review (IGTR) 09 (2007) 02, pp. 269-284

In this paper, we try to analyze the interactions among the shippers and the carriers, including the rail and marine shipping industry, in the bulk shipping market. Our paper presents both a two-player game model, and a two-stage, three-player, game model that includes the buyer as an active...

AN OVERVIEW ON GAME THEORY APPLICATIONS TO ENGINEERING

SANCHEZ-SORIANO, JOAQUIN - In: International Game Theory Review (IGTR) 15 (2013) 03, pp. 1340019-1

In this paper, we review some of the literature in which different applications to engineering problems are analyzed from a game-theoretic point of view. The revision is far from exhaustive and the sole purpose of this paper is to provide an approximate state-of-the-art on this topic. Likewise,...

MANHUNTING — A SIMPLE SEARCH GAME

MCCORMICK, GORDON H.; OWEN, GUILLERMO - In: International Game Theory Review (IGTR) 12 (2010) 04, pp. 293-308

We consider a search game in which a hider chooses to hide in any one of many cells. A searcher looks in any of the cells. The probability of finding the hider depends (a) on the characteristics of the cell, and (b) on whether the searcher looks in the right cell. It is possible that the hider...

We also provide algorithms for computing pairwise stable and directed Nash stable networks in network formation games. … computing pure‐strategy Nash equilibria of games on networks with finite action spaces. The algorithms exploit the fact that … partition the network into smaller subgames whose equilibrium sets may be more feasible to compute. We provide bounds on the …
