We consider a repeated congestion game with imperfect monitoring. At each stage, each player chooses to use some facilities and pays a cost that increases with the congestion. Two versions of the model are examined: a public monitoring setting where agents observe the cost of each available...

This paper studies a non-cooperative model of network formation. Built upon the two-way flow model of Bala and Goyal (2000a), it assumes that information decay as it flows through each agent, and the decay is increasing and concave in the number of his links. This assumption results in the fact...

This paper considers a two-player game of strategic experimentation with competition. Each agent faces a two-armed bandit problem where she continually chooses between her private risky arm and a common, safe arm. Each agent has exclusive access to her private arm. However, the common arm can...

In many social dilemmas, individuals tend to generate a situation with low payoffs instead of a system optimum (tragedy of the commons). Is the routing of traffic a similar problem? In order to address this question, we present experimental results on humans playing a route choice game in a...

This paper analyses a stopping game in which two players choose between learning about the quality of their private risky arm, and competing for the use of a single shared safe option. A player whose risky arm produces a success stops competing for the safe option. We assume that each player...

This paper analyses a two-player stopping game with multiarmed bandits in which each player chooses between learning about the quality of her private risky arm and competing for the use of a single shared safe arm. The qualities of the players' risky arms are independent. A player whose risky...

Every finite noncooperative game can be presented as a weighted network congestion game, and also as a network congestion game with player-specific costs. In the first presentation, different players may contribute differently to congestion, and in the second, they are differently (negatively)...

Wholesale electricity markets use different market designs to handle congestion in the transmission network. We compare nodal, zonal and discriminatory pricing in general networks with transmission constraints and loop flows. We conclude that in large games with many producers who are allowed to...
