The Generalized War of Attrition
We model a War of Attrition with N +K firms competing for N prizes. If firms must pay their full costs until the whole game ends, even after dropping out themselves (as in a standard-setting context), each firm’s exit time is independent both of K and of other players’ actions. If, instead, firms pay no costs after dropping out (as in a natural oligopoly), the field is immediately reduced to N ...
متن کاملWar of attrition with implicit time cost.
In the game-theoretic model war of attrition, players are subject to an explicit cost proportional to the duration of contests. We construct a model where the time cost is not explicitly given, but instead depends implicitly on the strategies of the whole population. We identify and analyse the underlying mechanisms responsible for the implicit time cost. Each player participates in a series of...
متن کاملThe War of Attrition with Noisy Players
We first consider the Nash equilibria for the two-player normal-form war of attrition, which is equivalent to a second-price all-pay auction. When there is a limit to the maximum effort (for example, a budget constraint), and for low enough prize values, there exists a symmetric mixed-strategy equilibrium under equal prize values. However, the only equilibria when prize values differ involve on...
متن کاملEffect of space in the game "war of attrition".
Spatial dynamics has in many cases been invoked as a mechanism that can promote the evolution of coexistence and cooperation, although the precise conditions for this to occur have not yet been characterised. In an effort to address this question we have analyzed an alternative version of the theoretical game "war of attrition," which exhibits unusual behavior: The well-mixed system exhibits qu...
