Use the following setting for questions 1-3. Consider the following static game: CR L 3,1 0,0 5,0 T M 2,1 1,2 3,1 B 1,2 0,1 4,4 Suppose this game is played for two periods. At the beginning of period 2, the players can observe the outcome from period 1. There is no discounting. 1. First, assume only pure-strategy SPNE such that either player's second period strategy DOES NOT depend on the first period outcome. How many such SPNE are in this game? (a) 1 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 4 (e) none

Which is false for the following game? C R. T. 3, 2 0,3 3, 3 M 5,0 4, 1 3, 1 B 2, 2 4, 5 1, 1 A. (M,C) and (B,C) are the only pure strategy Nash Equilibria OB. There is a Nash cquilibrium in which R is played with positive probability C. There is no Nash equilibrium in which L is played with positive probability OD. There is no Nash equilibrium in which both players choose two of their actions with positive probability
There is a first-priced auction where 3 players value object at v1=v2=90 and v3=70. Player with highest bid wins object and pays own bid. Player i's payoff is vi-bi. When there is a tie, winner is player with smallest number (ex. player 2 wins if ties with player 3). 1) Is (90,90,70) a Nash equilibrium? 2) Can player 3 win in a Nash equilibrium if it was second-price auction?
For the game given, find a Nash equilibrium in which both players randomize.

Consider the following two-player game with three options for each player. (Payouts are listed for the row player first, then the column player.) player Y layery 3,3 A 1,5 4,4 6,2 K 8,1 3,7 5,2 0,6 1,1 Find a mixed Nash equilibrium for this game. Solution suggestion: Use two variables per player. If p and are the probabilities of selecting the first two strategies, then 1-p-q is the probability of selecting the third strategy. You will need to solve a system of equations.
4. Consider a normal form game with N= {1,2} and S= {A,B,C,D} x {W,X,Y,Z}. Assume that L1 allows to eliminate D and X, L2 allows to eliminate B and C, and L3 allows to eliminate Z. Provide payoffs that lead to this outcome. State the rationality assumptions explicitly.
