This Palgrave Pivot examines monotone games and studies incentives and outcomes when there are multiple players, and how the decision of each player affects the well-being of others in particular ways. Games with strategic complements exhibit codirectional incentives, or incentives for each...

This paper studies games with both strategic substitutes and strategic complements, and more generally, games with strategic heterogeneity (GSH). Such games may behave differently from either games with strategic complements or games with strategic substitutes. Under mild assumptions (on one or...

In game theory, p-dominance and p-best response sets serve as important robustness solution concepts by allowing for deviations from the stringent common knowledge requirements of Nash equilibrium. However, solving for such sets remains largely intractable beyond the simplest of settings. The...

This paper analyzes games with both strategic substitutes and strategic complements. Such games may behave differently from either games with strategic complements or games with strategic substitutes. In such games, equilibria do not decrease as the parameter increases. Moreover, natural...

We consider global games with general payoff structures and prove existence of equilibrium. This shows that the global games method is well-defined with arbitrary strategic interaction among players, thus providing a foundation for the study of more general equilibrium behavior, especially as...

Feng and Sabarwal (2018) show that there is additional scope to study strategic complements in extensive form games, by investigating in detail the case of two stage, 2x2 games. We show the same for two stage, 2x2 games with strategic substitutes and with strategic heterogeneity. We characterize...
