Stochastic uncertainty can cause coordination problems that may hinder mutually beneficial cooperation. We propose a mechanism of ex-post voluntary transfers designed to circumvent these and ask whether it increase efficiency. To test this transfer mechanism, we implement controlled laboratory experiment based on repeated Ultimatum Game with stochastic endowment. Contrary our hypothesis, find a...

the balanced scorecard framework with a hierarchical, multilayer, and causal-effect structure can shed light on the growth path and pave the development steps, which in addition to monitoring the financial goals. it also considers and controls the other effective and driving factors. in this study, after reviewing the balanced scorecard, a model was proposed in addition to extract the strategic...

We investigate the evolution of cooperation on a non growth network model with death/birth dynamics. Nodes reproduce under selection for higher payoffs in a prisoners dilemma game played between network neighbours. The mean field characteristics of the model are explored and an attempt is made to understand the size dependent behaviour of the model in terms of fluctuations in the strategy densi...

Population structure and spatial heterogeneity are integral components of evolutionary dynamics, in general, and of evolution of cooperation, in particular. Structure can promote the emergence of cooperation in some populations and suppress it in others. Here, we provide results for weak selection to favor cooperation on regular graphs for any configuration, meaning any arrangement of cooperato...

This paper argues that the way customers use a new technology may differ from what producers intended and thereby influences the evolution of that technology and its industry. Customers may interpret the technology differently or may adapt it to their local conditions and requirements, generating variety in how users actually deploy products. Moreover, as customers use new products, they may le...

Recent studies have revealed that graph heterogeneity can considerably affect evolutionary processes and that it promotes the emergence and maintenance of cooperation in social dilemmas. In this paper, we analytically derive the evolutionary dynamics and the evolutionarily stable strategy (ESS) condition for 2×2 games on heterogeneous graphs based on “pairwise comparison” updating. Using pair a...

We study the potential of cooperation in global emission abatements with multiple externalities. Using a two-country model without side-payments, we identify the strategic effects under different timing regimes of cooperation. We obtain a positive complementarity effect of long-term cooperation in abatement on R&D levels that boosts potential benefits of long-term cooperation and a redistributi...
