Strategy-Proof Mechanism Design with Boundedly Rational Agents: Theory and Experiment
In a strategy-proof mechanism, implementation theory mostly assumes that each agent is rational in the sense that the agent reveals its true preference to induce its most preferred outcome. This assumption is sufficient to guarantee that the agent seeks such an outcome, but not necessary because…

Exclusionary Contracts and Incentives to Innovate
This paper develops a game-theoretic model to study how exclusionary contracts affect firms’ incentives to invest in innovation. Several symmetric sellers compete to supply an identical product to a set of buyers, and each seller can invest in R&D to develop a higher-quality version of the product…

Quadratic Programming Approach for Nash Equilibrium Computation in Multiplayer Imperfect-Information Games
There has been significant recent progress in algorithms for approximation of Nash equilibrium in large two-player zero-sum imperfect-information games and exact computation of Nash equilibrium in multiplayer normal-form games. While counterfactual regret minimization and fictitious play are…

Communication and Standoff
This paper examines the potential for pre-play communication to shorten the duration of two-player incomplete-information wars of attrition. If players’ types constitute costlessly verifiable information, then all types of players disclose their types, resulting in the war of attrition having…

On Collusion Sustainability and the Elasticity of Substitution
We analyze the relationship between collusion sustainability in an infinitely repeated game using trigger strategies and the elasticity of substitution. To this end, we adopt a demand function with constant elasticity of substitution between the differentiated goods. Since our model exhibits a…

Fair Division of Indivisible Items: Envy-Freeness vs. Efficiency Revisited
We study conflicts between envy-based fairness and efficiency for allocating indivisible items under additive utilities. We formalize several small, transparent instances showing that standard envy-freeness (EF) or its relaxations EFX and EFX0—i.e., envy-freeness up to any item, where EFX restricts…

Monetary Policy Committees, Independence, and Influence
We develop a model of monetary policy committee decision-making, building on the framework of games played through agents (GPTA). Interest groups seek to influence policy by offering action-contingent contracts to committee members. The resulting equilibrium admits a simple characterization and…

Equal Chances or Fewer Victims? Moral Judgments in Autonomous Vehicle Dilemmas
We examine the moral dilemma of how autonomous vehicles (AVs) should be programmed to act in unavoidable crash scenarios involving trade-offs between saving one life and saving many. We report results from three experimental studies that investigate individuals’ preferences over alternative AV…

A Structural Measure of Bargaining Fragility in Multi-Domain Agreements
Negotiation outcomes are commonly analyzed through equilibrium concepts, yet many agreements fail during implementation for reasons not captured by incentive structure alone This paper introduces a pre-equilibrium screening criterion for bargaining fragility based on a small set of agreement-level…

Randomized Algorithms and Neural Networks for Communication-Free Multiagent Singleton Set Cover
This paper considers how a system designer can program a team of autonomous agents to coordinate with one another such that each agent selects (or covers) an individual resource with the goal that all agents collectively cover the maximum number of resources. Specifically, we study how agents can…

All-Pay Auctions with Different Forfeits
In an auction, each party bids a certain amount, and the one who bids the highest is the winner. Interestingly, auctions can also be used as models for other real-world systems. In an all-pay auction all parties must pay a forfeit for bidding. In the most commonly studied all-pay auction, parties…

Endowment Inequality in Common Pool Resource Games: An Experimental Analysis
This work addresses whether heterogeneity in player endowments influences investment decisions in common pool resource (CPR) games, shedding light on the relationship between inequality and economic decision making. We explore two theoretical avenues from behavioral economics—linear other-regarding…

The Relationships Between Oil, Critical Minerals, and Military Expenditure: Evidence from the U.S. and China
This paper investigates the interplay between oil, critical minerals, and military expenditure in the U.S. and China. The research goal is to evaluate how sensitive the military expenditure of these countries is to shocks in energy markets. It develops a stylized dynamic model of the arms race and…

Relative Consumption as Fitness: A Replicator–Mutator Model of Reference-Dependent Demand and Status Competition
Background: Standard consumer theory treats preferences as fixed primitives and demand as the solution to an individual optimisation problem; we instead model consumption styles as heritable strategies whose prevalence is shaped by selection and experimentation, and ask when status competition…

The Effect of Competition on Dishonesty, Trade, and Consumer Trust
This paper considers a multi-period two-sided asymmetric information model with infinitely long-lived sellers and short-lived buyers. I assume that two exogenously given qualities are offered in the market. Each period, a consumer, who is uncertain about the quality of the offered product, observes…

Politically Dangerous Minds: A Game-Theoretic Analysis of Vygotsky, Luria, and the Socially Mediated Survival of Knowledge
Scientific theories survive on institutional fitness, not empirical merit alone. Under Soviet Stalinism, Vygotsky and Luria’s cultural-historical psychology was suppressed while Leontiev’s Activity Theory flourished because it aligned with Marxist-Pavlovian materialism. A game-theoretic framework…

Diffusion Mechanism of Regional Collaborative Strategy in Public Health Emergencies Considering Vertical Intervention
Frequent occurrences of inter-regional emergencies constitute critical impediments to global security and sustainable development, necessitating enhanced intergovernmental emergency collaboration. This study employs a network evolutionary game model (NEGM) to examine how vertical interventions…

A Provable Semi-Infinite Programming Approach for Solving Constrained Dynamic Games
Many engineering problems must account for the non-cooperative decisions and actions of multiple players. These problems can be modeled within a game-theoretic framework. The approach herein is to model such problems as mathematical games, convert them to semi-infinite programs, and utilize a…

A Cooperative Pollution Control Differential Game with Randomly Switching Payoffs
We study a continuous-time cooperative differential game of pollution control in which the pollution stock accumulates emissions and affects long-run welfare. The key feature is a one-time random increase in the public damage weight, interpreted as a regime shift in environmental policy, social…

When Context Shapes Preferences: Norm Erosion and Context-Dependent Fairness Concerns in Public Goods Games
Public goods provision is vulnerable to free riding, making sustained cooperation a central challenge in economics. Fehr and Schmidt’s inequity-aversion model explains how fairness concerns can support cooperation, but it treats preferences as fixed. Motivated by Kimbrough and Vostroknutov’s…
