The electricity-carbon coupled markets have emerged as a pivotal mechanism for integrating renewable energy into virtual power plants and accelerating decarbonization in the power sector. With the diversification of virtual power plant types and the continued evolution of peer-to-peer trading in...

There has been significant recent progress in algorithms for approximation of Nash equilibrium in large two-player zero-sum imperfect-information games and exact computation of Nash equilibrium in multiplayer normal-form games. While counterfactual regret minimization and fictitious play are...

Firms' efforts to reduce pollution emissions in their production processes are induced by market forces as well as governmental regulatory instruments. The market forces, which might induce firms to increase production to maximize profits, work at cross-purposes. One of the common solutions is...

The n-player Tullock contest with complete information is known to admit explicit solutions in special cases, such as (i) homogeneous valuations, (ii) constant returns, and (iii) two contestants. But can the model be solved more generally? In this paper, we show that key characteristics of the...
