We fix the status quo (Q) and one of the bilateral bargaining agents to examine how shifting the opponent.s ideal point (type) away from Q in a unidimensional space affects the Nash and Kalai-Smorodinsky bargaining solutions when opponents differ only in their ideal points. The results are...

Dynamic stability under the replicator dynamic of evolutionary game theory is investigated for certain symmetric extensive form games whose subgame structure exhibits a high degree of decomposability. It is shown that a pervasive equilibrium strategy is locally asymptotically stable (l.a.s.) if...

In this paper, the authors examine the economics of crime deterrence from an evolutionary perspective. A bimatrix game is used to model the interaction between populations of property owners and (potential) criminals, given exogenous levels of public policing and criminal sanctions. A crucial...

We fix the status quo (Q) and one of the bilateral bargaining agents to examine how facing opponents with different single-peaked utility functions over a unidimensional space affects the Nash, Kalai-Smorodinsky and Perles-Maschler bargaining solutions. We find that when one opponent's utility...
