On essential, (strictly) perfect equilibria
نویسنده
چکیده
It is known that generic games within certain collections of infinite-action normal-form games have only essential equilibria. We point to a difficulty in showing that essential equilibria in generic games are (strictly) perfect, and we identify collections of games whose generic members have only essential and (strictly) perfect equilibria. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.

Supplement to “ Majority runoff elections : Strategic voting and Duverger ’ s hypothesis ” : Technical appendices
In Appendix C, for a large class of Poisson games, we define Bayes–Nash equilibrium and extend the definition of strictly perfect equilibrium (Okada 1981). We show some useful properties of Nash equilibria and we characterize the set of strictly perfect equilibria. We define a limit property of Nash equilibria as the number of players grows large: asymptotic strict perfection. Our characterizat...
متن کاملDownsian Model with Asymmetric Information: Possibility of Policy Divergence
This paper presents a model of Downsian political competition in which voters are imperfectly informed about economic fundamentals. In this setting, parties’ choice of platform influence voters’ behavior not only through voters’ preferences over policies, but also through formation of their expectation of the unknown fundamentals. We show that in this political game with asymmetric information,...
متن کاملA theory of regular Markov perfect equilibria in dynamic stochastic games: Genericity, stability, and purification
This paper develops a theory of regular Markov perfect equilibria in dynamic stochastic games. We show that almost all dynamic stochastic games have a finite number of locally isolated Markov perfect equilibria that are all regular. These equilibria are essential and strongly stable. Moreover, they all admit purification. JEL classification numbers: C73, C61, C62.
متن کاملContinuous Markov equilibria with quasi-geometric discounting
We prove that the standard quasi-geometric discounting model used in dynamic consumer theory and political economics does not possess continuous Markov perfect equilibria (MPE) if there is a strictly positive lower bound on wealth. We also show that, at points of discontinuity, the decision maker strictly prefers lotteries over the next period’s assets. We then extend the standard model to have...
متن کاملComputational Study on the Energetic and Electronic Aspects of Tautomeric Equilibria in 5-methylthio-1,2,4-triazole
The main purpose of this research is to investigate computationally the tautomeric reaction pathway of 5-methyl-3-methylthio-1,2,4-triazole from the thermodynamical and mechanistical viewpoints. In this respect, density functional theory (DFT) in conjunction with the quantum theory of atoms in molecule (QTAIM) has been employed to model the energetic and electronic features of tautomeric mechan...
