Computing Rational Decisions In Extensive Games With Limited Foresight
نویسنده
چکیده
We study extensive form games where players might not be able to foresee the possible consequences of their actions and try to exploit the opponents’ believed weaknesses in order to improve upon the final outcome. We build upon existing models of games with limited foresight, endowing players with the ability of higher-order reasoning, and proposing a novel solution concept to address intuitions coming from real game play. We analyse the resulting equilibria, devising an effective procedure to compute them.

Rationalizable foresight dynamics
This paper proposes and studies the rationalizable foresight dynamics. A normal form game is repeatedly played in a random matching fashion by a continuum of agents who make decisions at stochastic points in time. A rationalizable foresight path is a feasible path of action distribution along which each agent takes an action that maximizes his expected discounted payoff against another path whi...

This paper studies equilibrium selection in supermodular games based on perfect foresight dynamics. A normal form game is played repeatedly in a large society of rational agents. There are frictions: opportunities to revise actions follow independent Poisson processes. Each agent forms his belief about the future evolution of the action distribution in the society, and takes an action that maxi...
متن کاملFinite Stage Centipede Game and other Finite Two Player Dynamic Games with Bounded Rationality
Subgame Perfect Nash Equilibrium (SPNE), as a predictive theory, has been found to be inconsistent with experimental evidence in many dynamic games. This working paper introduces bounded rationality of varying degrees through a distribution of the types of each player in finite dynamic games, and checks if that rationalizes observed/“intuitive” behavior. Each of these types has a different degr...
متن کاملPricing and Advertising Decisions in a Three-level Supply Chain with Nash, Stackelberg and Cooperative Games
Pricing and advertising are two important marketing strategies in the supply chain management which lead to customer demand’s increase and therefore higher profit for members of supply chains. This paper considers advertising, and pricing decisions simultaneously for a three-level supply chain with one supplier, one manufacturer and one retailer. The amount of market demand is influenced ...
متن کاملBargaining and Leverage in Option Demand Markets
There is keen interest in estimating empirical models of economic behavior in order to derive predictions that can be useful for strategic analysis and antitrust. The economic theories that form the foundation for empirical estimation often assume that agents are rational and act with foresight. In many models, fully rational agents not only calculate the immediate impact of their economic deci...
