The authorities want to clear the merger if the information sent by the firm suggests that the expected welfare in their country will ...

Abstract: The paper concerns a cooperation problem in multiple participant decision making (DM). A fully scalable cooperation model with individual participants being Bayesian decision makers who use fully probabilistic design of the optimal decision strategy is presented. The solution suggests a flat structure of cooperation, where each participant interacts with several ‘neighbours’. The coop...

Trust plays a key role in social interactions, particularly when the decisions we make depend on the people we face. In this paper, we use game theory to explore whether a person’s decisions are influenced by the type of agent they interact with: human or robot. By adopting a coin entrustment game, we quantitatively measure trust and cooperation to see if such phenomena emerge differently when ...

Human societies are unique in the level of cooperation among non-kin. Evolutionary models explaining this behavior typically assume pure strategies of cooperation and defection. Behavioral experiments, however, demonstrate that humans are typically conditional co-operators who have other-regarding preferences. Building on existing models on the evolution of cooperation and costly punishment, we...
