چکیده

In this paper, we study the complexity of deciding which player has a winning strategy in certain types of McNaughton games. These graph games can be used as models for computational problems and processes of infinite duration. We consider the cases (1) where the first player wins when vertices in a specified set are visited infinitely often and vertices in another specified set are visited finitely often, (2) where the first player wins when exactly those vertices in one of a number of specified disjoint sets are visited infinitely often, and (3) a generalization of these first two cases. We give polynomial time algorithms to determine which player has a winning strategy in each of the games considered.

Welfare Impacts of Imposing a Tariff on Rice in Iran vs an Export Tax in Thailand: A Game Theoretic Approach

In this study, the social welfare impacts of the interaction of Iranian rice import policies and Thai export policies are analyzed using a game theoretic approach in conjunction with econometric supply and demand models. The joint impacts of increasing the world price of rice, resulting from the export policies in Thailand along with changes in tariff rates in Iran, on social welfare are analyz...

Combination of real options and game-theoretic approach in investment analysis

Investments in technology create a large amount of capital investments by major companies. Assessing such investment projects is identified as critical to the efficient assignment of resources. Viewing investment projects as real options, this paper expands a method for assessing technology investment decisions in the linkage existence of uncertainty and competition. It combines the game-theore...

NGTSOM: A Novel Data Clustering Algorithm Based on Game Theoretic and Self- Organizing Map

Identifying clusters is an important aspect of data analysis. This paper proposes a noveldata clustering algorithm to increase the clustering accuracy. A novel game theoretic self-organizingmap (NGTSOM ) and neural gas (NG) are used in combination with Competitive Hebbian Learning(CHL) to improve the quality of the map and provide a better vector quantization (VQ) for clusteringdata. Different ...

A game Theoretic Approach to Pricing, Advertising and Collection Decisions adjustment in a closed-loop supply chain

This paper considers advertising, collection and pricing decisions simultaneously for a closed-loop supplychain(CLSC) with one manufacturer(he) and two retailers(she). A multiplicatively separable new demand function is proposed which influenced by pricing and advertising. In this paper, three well-known scenarios in the game theory including the Nash, Stackelberg and Cooperative games are expl...

A Game Theoretic Approach for Sustainable Power Systems Planning in Transition

Intensified industrialization in developing countries has recently resulted in huge electric power demand growth; however, electricity generation in these countries is still heavily reliant on inefficient and traditional non-renewable technologies. In this paper, we develop an integrated game-theoretic model for effective power systems planning thorough balancing between supply and demand for e...

Coordinating a decentralized supply chain with a stochastic demand using quantity flexibility contract: a game-theoretic approach

  Supply chain includes two or more parties linked by flow of goods, information, and funds. In a decentralized system, supply chain members make decision regardless of their decision's effects on the performance of the other members and the entire supply chain. This is the key issue in supply chain management, that the mechanism should be developed in which different objectives should be align...
