Social Focal Points
We use experimental methods to study coordination games analogous to voting games over fixed divisions of a pie. We find that players use the ethnic or gender identities of other players, rather than other payoff irrelevant features of a game’s description, to achieve coordination. Coordination along or across gender lines, we show, can be attributed in part to the presence of social norms rath...
متن کاملHidden symmetries and focal points
This paper provides a general formal framework to define and analyze the concepts of focal points and frames for normal form games. The information provided by a frame is captured by a symmetry structure which is consistent with the payoff structure of the game. The set of alternative symmetry structures has itself a clear structure (a lattice). Focal points are strategy profiles which respect ...
متن کاملRapid Location of Mount Points
Mount points" allow more storage to be grafted into tree-structured hierarchical file systems. Administrative tasks use their 10~ltionS, which are tabulated in a file. In our System V U~IX environment, this file was occasionally removed. Getmnt was written to recover the information. Getmnt has had three significant versions. The original version (getmntl) was a highly optimized naive tree trav...
متن کاملSOME RESULTS FOR SOLUTION AND FOCAL POINTS OF NONSELFADJOINT SECOND ORDER SYSTEMS
Consider y" (t) + A (t)y (t) + 0, y is a real n-dimensinal vector and A(t) is a real nxn matrix, continuous on some interval. Some positivity properties of solutions and conjugate points of y"(t) + A(t)y (t) = 0 appeared in literature. We prove similar results for focal points
متن کاملFocal points and bargaining in housing markets
a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t Are focal points important for determining the outcome of high-stakes negotiations? We investigate this question by examining the role that round numbers play as focal points in negotiations in the housing market. Using a large dataset on home transactions in the U.S., we document sharp spikes in the distribution of final negotiated house prices at round nu...
