(i) List the strategies of each player. (ii) Find the subgame perfect Nash equilibrium. (iii) Present the strategic form of the game and find all the pure strategy Nash equilibria in the strategic form. (Mars is the row player, Mercury is the column player and Venus is the matrix player.) For each Nash equilibrium in the strategic form that is not subgame perfect in the extensive form, provide a reason why it is not so.

What is game theory? How does it relate to strategic decision making? What do the phrases dominant strategy and Nash Equilibrium mean as they apply to game theory?
Answer with proper explanation. Thanks
How is a Nash equilibrium outcome different from a rationalizable outcome? In a Nash equilibrium players are allowed to randomise. Rationalizable outcomes apply to dynamic games whereas Nash equilibrium does not. In a Nash equilibrium each player always has the correct conjecture about what the other player will do. Nash equilibrium only allows for unilateral changes in strategy. None of the above. No Answer
Can you explain what the Pure Coordination Game is and provide an example of one?
Game theory: Consider a collective action game with thirty individuals (N = 30). When the number of participants in the joint project is n, each individual, including shirkers, receives a benefit of B(n) = 18n and each participant incurs a cost of C(n) = 32 − 2n. 1. Find all of the Nash equilibria, both stable and unstable ones. 2. Find the socially optimal outcome. 3. Check if any of the Nash equilibria is socially optimal. Explain your answer.
Two rival companies competing in the same market need to decide their plans for future expansion of their stores. The Table below shows the possible outcomes of their mutually interdependent actions (payoffs are profits in £m) Giga Company Titanic Conglomerate No Change Refurbishment of existing stores Large Expansion No Change 30, 40 25, 35 15, 24 Refurbishment of existing stores 35, 30 28, 32 18, 33 Large Expansion 12, 22 18, 20 20, 25 The Nash equilibrium: (A) does not exist. (B) occurs when both firms choose Refurbishment of existing stores. (C) occurs when both firms choose Large Expansion. (D) occurs when both firms choose No Change.

1. Consider the following N-player game. Each agent has a choice of strategy A or B. The state variable is x, the proportion of agents choosing strategy A. For every agent, the utility of choosing strategy A is U(A) = 10 +2x and the utility of choosing strategy B is U(B) = 10+3x. What is the Nash equilibrium to this game? Explain.
rituo? A. Identify the pure-strategy Nash equilibrium/a in the game below, and identify the Pareto efficient strategy combinations. (You may simply state these, you do not need to show how you derived your answer.) B. Identify the mixed-strategy equilibrium to the game. Show your work. You may use the equations from the "generic" 2X2 game if you wish. Doing it the long way is fine, however. C. State the payoff for each player in the mixed-strategy equilibrium. Is the mixed-strategy combination Pareto efficient? Player 1 U D 20 Player 2 L (10,15) (1,5) R (0,6) (1,6)
Evolutionary game theory provides a framework for understanding the emergence of preferences and behavior. Why are theoretical methodologies that employ the rational actor model an evolutionary stable strategy for economists?
Consider the following game tree. The players are P1 and P2. The strategies available to P1 are L, M, R. The strategies available to P2 are A and B. P1 L R M P2 (1,10) A В A B (0,0) (2,1) (0,0) (2,1)
A Nash Equilibrium is the equilibrium of a game in which; Both players get the largest payoff amount Both players get the best payoff independent of what the other players choices are Both player, with the knowledge of what the other players possible moves are, do not have incentive to deviate from their strategy There is incomplete information of the game and each player makes the move that is best for them and their payoff outcome
