Context : The London Metro Bus is crowded for travel during peak hours. During such travel hours two daily passengers ‘James’ and ‘Robert’ enter the Metro. Luckily, two adjacent seats are free in the bus. Each of them must decide whether to sit or stand. For both, sitting alone is more comfortable than sitting next to the other person, which in turn is more comfortable than standing. Question : Assume that both ‘James’ and ‘Robert’ are altruistic, ranking outcomes according to the other person’s comfort and, out of politeness, prefer to stand than to sit if the other person stands. Model the situation as a strategic game and find any Nash equilibrium (equilibria) if it exists. Does a dominant strategy exist for either ‘James’ or ‘Robert’ with these preferences? show ALL steps and working in support to your answer
39 In the following sequential game, person 1 chooses first and person 2 chooses second. Using backward induction, what choice should person 1 make? chooses no if person 2 chooses no chooses yes if person 2 chooses yes chooses yes chooses no
In Homework 1, we saw that there is no strict dominant strategy equilibrium in an inspection game. Thus, the players must randomize and play a mixed strategy in equilibrium. Suppose the agent shirks with probability p₁ and works with probability (1 - p₁), while the principal inspects with probability p2 and does not inspect with probability (1-P2). Find the mixed strategy equilibrium for this game. I NI S (0, -k) (w, -w) W (w c, p-w-k)| (wc, p-w) Table 1: Payoff matrix for the inspection game

A bag of n players chooses one number between 0 and 10. The winner is the one who chooses the second smallest number. For example, if the selected numbers are [2, 2, 3, 5, 9, 10], the winner will be the one who chose 3. In the event that multiple people choose the second smallest number, the winner is randomly selected from among them. For example, if the selected numbers are [2,2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 5, 9, 10], each player who chose 3 will win with a probability of 1/4. Even if everyone chooses the same number (meaning there is no second smallest number), the winner is randomly selected from among them. Each player wants to choose the number that will give them the greatest chance of winning. Find the Nash equilibrium for this problem.

Exercise 1.4. There are two players. Each player is given an unmarked envelope and asked to put in it either nothing or $300 of his own money or $600. A referee collects the envelopes, opens them, gathers all the money, then adds 50% of that amount (using his own money) and divides the total into two equal parts which he then distributes to the players. (a) Represent this game frame with two alternative tables: the first table showing in each cell the amount of money distributed to Player 1 and the amount of money distributed to Player 2, the second table showing the change in wealth of each player (money received minus contribution). (b) Suppose that Player 1 has some animosity towards the referee and ranks the outcomes in terms of how much money the referee loses (the more, the better), while Player 2 is selfish and greedy and ranks the outcomes in terms of her own net gain. Represent the corresponding game using a table. (c) Is there a strict dominant-strategy equilibrium?
