In this paper, we propose and analyze a distributed negotiation strategy for a multi-agent multi-attribute negotiation … concede during the negotiation, we propose and analyze a reactive concession strategy. We demonstrate through computational … experiments that our distributed negotiation strategy yields performance sufficiently close to the Nash bargaining solution, and …

Experiments show that in sequential bargaining games (SBG), subjects usually deviate from game-theoretic predictions. Previous explanations have focused on considerations of fairness in the offers, and social utility functions have been formulated to model the data. However, a recent explanation...

We analyze a three-player legislative bargaining game over an ideological and a distributive decision. Legislators are privately informed about their ideological intensities, i.e., the weight placed on the ideological decision relative to the weight placed on the distributive decision....

We conduct a laboratory experiment and parallel computational adaptive agent simulations on unraveling of contract dates in two-sided matching markets inspired by the entry-level professional labor markets for medical interns in Britain. Experimental design consists of decentralized and mixed...

The 8th problem raised by [Hart and Mas-Colell (2010) Bargaining and Cooperation in Strategic Form Games. Journal of the European Economics Association, 8(1): 7-33], is solved. To be specific, I show that the set of SP equilibria can be determined by a finite number of systems of linear...

We study the impact of gender norms on the distribution of paid and unpaid labor between women and men in an intra-household bargaining model featuring endogenous social norms. In contrast to the previous literature, which assumes a homogeneous social norm, agents are connected via explicitly...

The Nash bargaining solution of a modified bargaining problem in the contract space yields the pair of stationary subgame perfect equilibrium proposals in the alternating offers model, also for positive time between proposals. As time vanishes, convergence to the Nash bargaining solution is...

The bargaining model with stochastic order of proposing players is properly embedded in continuous time and it is strategically equivalent to the alternating offers model. For all parameter values, the pair of equilibrium proposals corresponds to the Nash bargaining solution of a modified...

There has been a long debate on equilibrium characterization in the negotiation model when players have different time …

We report experimental findings on the role of charitable promises in bargaining settings. We vary the enforceability of such promises within variants of ultimatum games where the proposer suggest a split between himself, the responder and a char-itable donation. By reneging on initial pledges,...
