Duopoly game theory is applied to the wood industrial markets (sawnwood and pulpwood markets) in the North of Iran. The Nash equilibrium and the dynamic properties of the system based on marginal adjustments are determined. The probability that the Nash equilibrium will be reached is almost zero. The dynamical properties of sawnwood and pulpwood prices derived via the duopoly game model are fou...

By defining attack-defense action sequence and utility function of both sides, combine with dynamic Bayes game theory to analyze the confrontation and interdependence between the two agents’ strategies. Dynamic Bayes attack-defense game model can describe each possible strategy in every stage. This paper proposes the construction method of game extensive form by utilizing attack-defense confron...

This letter investigates the problem of distributed channel selection in cognitive radio ad hoc networks (CRAHNs) with heterogeneous spectrum opportunities. Firstly, we formulate this problem as a local congestion game, which is proved to be an exact potential game. Then, we propose a spatial best response dynamic (SBRD) to rapidly achieve Nash equilibrium via local information exchange. Moreov...

reduced-activation ferritic/martensitic steels have been developed by replacing molybdenum by tungsten and niobium by tantalum in commercial elevated-temperature cr–mo steels to reduce half-life of radioactive isotopes. the objective of this study was to investigate tensile properties of a reduced-activation ferritic/martensitic steel (9cr-2wvta) in normalized-tempered (nt) and quenched-tempere...

Block cipher analysis covers randomness analysis and cryptanalysis. This paper proposes a new method potentially used for randomness analysis and cryptanalysis. The method uses true random sequence concept as a reference for measuring randomness level of a random sequence. By using this concept, this paper defines bias which represents violation of a random sequence from true random sequence. I...

This paper reports data for coordination game experiments with random matching. The experimental design is based on changes in an effort-cost parameter, which do not alter the set of Nash equilibria, nor do they alter the predictions of dynamic adjustment theories based on imitation or best responses to others’ decisions. As would be expected, however, increases in effort cost result in reduced...

In the presence of externalities across coalitions, Dutta et al. (2010) characterize their value by extending Hart and Mas-Colell reduced game consistency. In the present paper, we provide a characterization result for the core for games with externalities by extending one form of consistency studied by Moulin (1985), which is often refereed to as the complement-reduced game property. Moreover,...
