For a finite player cooperative cost game, we consider two solutions that are based on excesses of coalitions. We define per-capita excess-sum of a player as sum of normalized excesses of coalitions involving this player and view it as a measure of player's dissatisfaction. So, per-capita...

We consider a queueing model wherein the resource is shared by two different classes of customers, primary (existing) and secondary (new), under a service level based pricing contract. This contract between secondary class customers and resource manager specifies unit admission price and quality...

Blackwell optimality in a finite state-action discounted Markov decision process (MDP) gives an optimal strategy which is optimal for every discount factor close enough to one. In this article we explore this property, which we call as Blackwell–Nash equilibrium, in two player finite...

We consider a two player finite state-action general sum single controller constrained stochastic game with both discounted and average cost criteria. We consider the situation where player 1 has subscription-based constraints and player 2, who controls the transition probabilities, has...
