2. Consider the following "centipede game." The game starts with player 1 choosing be- tween terminate (T) and continue (C). If player 1 chooses C, the game proceeds with player 2 choosing between terminate (t) and continue (c). The two players choose be- tween terminate and continue in turn if the other player chooses continue until the terminal nodes with (player l's payoff, player 2's payoff) are reached as shown below.

Consider the following two player game. In each cell the first number refers to the payoff to Player 1 while the second number refers to the payoff to Player 2. Suppose the two players move simultaneously (at the same time). Which one of the following statements is CORRECT? Player #1 Player #2 Top Bottom Left 7.7 4.0 Right 0,4 4,4 O There are three equilibria in this game: two pure strategy equilibria at [Top, Left] and [Bottom, Right) and al third equilibrium in mixed strategies. In the mixed strategy equilibrium of this game. Player 1 should play Top with probability 2/5 and Bottom with probability 3/5; Player 2 should play Left with probability 2/5 and Right with probability 3/5. O There are three equilibria in this game; two pure strategy equilibria at (Top. Left) and (Bottom, Right) and a third equilibrium in mixed strategies. In the mixed strategy equilibrium of this game, both players should randomize over the strategies with probability and %. O There is a unique dominant…

1. Consider a game of chicken: two players approach a narrow bridge with room only for one, and each chooses either to go through and hope the other guy backs off (call this action H, for "hawk"), or backs off to let the other go through (call this action D, for "dove"). If both players are normal, then each gets a payoff of -1 from a collision (i.e. if both choose H), 1 if they choose H against D, 0 if they choose D (regardless of what the other player chooses). Now perturb the game as follows: there is a chance p > 0 that P2 is a “violent type", who gets 1 from playing H regardless of Pl's action, and -1 from playing D, again regardless of P1's action. (a) Illustrate the game tree corresponding to the Harsanyi transformation of this game (i.e. the dynamic game of imperfect information in which nature moves first). (b) Illustrate the extended game (i.e. the normal form game corresponding to your game tree in part (a)). (c) Find all values of p for which there is a BNE in which P1…
