This paper investigates three models to implement Tradable Green Certificates (TGC) system with aid of game theory approach. In particular, the competition between thermal and renewable power plants is formulated in three models: namely cooperative, Nash and Stackelberg game models. The price of TGC is assumed to be determined by the legislative body (government) which is fixed. Numerical examp...

Explaining unconditional cooperation, such as donations to charities or contributions to public goods, continues to present a problem. One possibility is that cooperation can pay through developing a reputation that makes one more likely to be chosen for a profitable cooperative partnership, a process termed competitive altruism (CA) or reputation-based partner choice. Here, we show, to our kno...

By a game in coalitional structure or shortly coalitional game we mean the standard cooperative non-transferable utility game described by a nonempty set of payo®s for each coalition of players. It is well-known that balancedness is a su±cient condition for the nonemptiness of the core of such a cooperative non-transferable utility game. But any information on the internal organization of the c...

[ISSN: 2045-7057] www.ijmse.org 5 Abstract—Due to its capability to solve the situations of conflict and competition, Game Theory has been used as a mathematical tool in economics, politics, biology and human psychology. Nash Equilibrium, being the solution of a non-cooperative game, gives a stable state in a sense that no agent/player have any positive incentive to deviate from its current ado...

This paper proposes a new negotiation game, based on the weighted voting paradigm in cooperative game theory, where agents need to form coalitions and agree on how to share the gains. Despite the prevalence of weighted voting in the real world, there has been little work studying people’s behavior in such settings. We show that solution concepts from cooperative game theory (in particular, an e...

MAC layer jamming is a common attack on wireless networks, which is easy to launch by the attacker and which is very effective in disrupting the service provided by the network. Most of the current MAC protocols for wireless networks, for example, IEEE 802.11, do not provide sufficient protection against MAC layer jamming attacks. In this paper, we first use a non-cooperative game model to char...

This work provides a mathematical description of process game for the safe driving ship that encounters other ships. State and control constraint variables, as well set acceptable tactics, are taken into consideration. Multi-criteria optimization operations developed positional matrix games, based on cooperative, non-cooperative, classical (non-game) optimal steering control. Adequate algorithm...

Although positive incentives for cooperators and/or negative incentives for free-riders in social dilemmas play an important role in maintaining cooperation, there is still the outstanding issue of who should pay the cost of incentives. The second-order free-rider problem, in which players who do not provide the incentives dominate in a game, is a well-known academic challenge. In order to meet...

We survey the recent developments in the studies of cooperative games under fuzzy environment. The basic problems of a cooperative game in both crisp and fuzzy contexts are to find how the coalitions form vis-á-vis how the coalitions distribute the worth. One of the fuzzification processes assumes that the coalitions thus formed are fuzzy in nature having only partial participations of the play...

Games on lattices generalize classical cooperative games (coalitional games), bi-cooperative games, multichoice games, etc., and provide a general framework to define actions of players in a cooperative game. We provide here an axiomatization of the Shapley value and interaction index for such games.
