In potential games, the best-reply dynamics results in the existence of a cost function such that each player’s best-reply set equals the set of minimizers of the potential given by the opponents’ strategies. The study of ...

In this paper we state a condition which characterizes the sub-class of TU-games (games with transferable utility) having non-empty core of dimension k; for any 0 <= k <= n. It improves and generalizes the adding up (AU) ...

This dissertation advances an analysis of the conditions of video games production in the context of Chile. It utilises Latin American Dependency Theory concepts and ideas, combined with more recent interpretations of the ...

We study the convergence of Nash equilibria in a game of optimal stopping. If the associated mean field game has a unique equilibrium, any sequence of n-player equilibria converges to it as n -> infinity. However, both the ...

Hedonic games are simple models of coalition formation whose main solution concept is that of core-partition. Several conditions guaranteeing the existence of core-partitions have been proposed so far. In this paper, we ...

Economic games are useful as experimental models of complex social interaction situations such as altruism. These games are important because they allow you to analyze the variables involved in people's decision making. ...

We introduce the concept of a Lyapunov game as a subclass of strictly dominated games and potential games. The advantage of this approach is that every ergodic system (repeated game) can be represented by a Lyapunov-like ...

Currently, games are not strictly associated with player fun. There are those that have been developed to serve as a learning tool, including on health-related topics. Thus, the present paper presents the connection between ...

This paper reports results of an experimental study that assessed the efficacy and teachers' perception of feasibility of a set of structured games for promoting curriculum learning goals in 12 prekindergarten and kindergarten ...
