A New Approach to Solving Production-Appropriation Games with Many Heterogeneous Players
Cornes, Richard C.; Hartley, Roger; Tamura, Yuji - 2021
We set out a model of production and appropriation involving many players, who differ with respect to both resource endowments and productivities. We write down the model in a novel way that permits our analysis to avoid the proliferation of dimensions associated with the best response function...

Exclusivity of Groups in Contests
Send, Jonas - 2021
I analyse a group contest in which groups decide over two dimensions of membership-exclusivity: whether a member is allowed to join the group at all, and whether this member is allowed to join another group as well. If the prize is mostly private, group leaders do not offer membership in...

An Experimental Investigation of Colonel Blotto Games
Chowdhury, Subhasish M.; Kovenock, Dan; Sheremeta, Roman M. - 2021
This article examines behavior in the two-player, constant-sum Colonel Blotto game with asymmetric resources in which players maximize the expected number of battlefields won. The experimental results support all major theoretical predictions. In the auction treatment, where winning a...

Two-Aggregate Games : Demonstration Using a Production-Appropriation Model
Cornes, Richard C.; Hartley, Roger; Tamura, Yuji - 2017
We expand the scope of the two-aggregate method by applying it to a situation where many heterogeneous players are free to contribute to both aggregates. Such situations naturally arise in various resource allocation problems. Hence our method is useful in many applications. A...
