On Best-Response Dynamics in Potential Games
This work studies the convergence properties of continuous-time fictitious play in potential games. It is shown that in almost every potential game and for almost every initial condition, fictitious play converges to a pure-strategy Nash equilibrium. We focus our study on the class of regular potential games; i.e., the set of potential games in which all Nash equilibria are regular. As byproduc...
متن کاملGeneral distribution of consumers in pure Hotelling games
A pure Hotelling game is a competition between a finite number of players who select simultaneously a location in order to attract as many consumers as possible. In this paper, we study the case of a general distribution of consumers on a network generated by a metric graph. Because players do not compete on price, the continuum of consumers shop at the closest player’s location. Under regulari...
متن کاملFault-Tolerant Hotelling Games
The n-player Hotelling game calls for each player to choose a point on the line segment, so as to maximize the size of his Voronoi cell. This paper studies fault-tolerant versions of the Hotelling game. Two fault models are studied: line faults and player faults. The first model assumes that the environment is prone to failure: with some probability, a disconnection occurs at a random point on ...

متن کاملBest Response Adaptation for Role Games
Consider a large population of individuals which can be in one of two distinct roles. The role of an individual is switched every now and then, and interactions occur between randomly paired individuals in different roles. These interactions are represented by a bimatrix game and individuals are modelled as boundedly rational expected utility maximizers who choose their actions according to a m...
