Several variants are considered in Game Theory Evolving by Herbert Gintis. [2] In some variants of the problem, the players are allowed to communicate before deciding to go to the bar. However, they are not required to tell the truth. Named after a bar in Santa Fe, New Mexico, the problem was created in 1994 by W. Brian Arthur.
In mathematics and especially game theory, the airport problem is a type of fair division problem in which it is decided how to distribute the cost of an airport runway among different players who need runways of different lengths. The problem was introduced by S. C. Littlechild and G. Owen in 1973. [1] Their proposed solution is:
Word problem for context-sensitive language [35] Intersection emptiness for an unbounded number of regular languages [32] Regular Expression Star-Freeness [36] Equivalence problem for regular expressions [21] Emptiness problem for regular expressions with intersection. [21] Equivalence problem for star-free regular expressions with squaring. [21]
In game theory, a solution concept is a formal rule for predicting how a game will be played. These predictions are called "solutions", and describe which strategies will be adopted by players and, therefore, the result of the game. The most commonly used solution concepts are equilibrium concepts, most famously Nash equilibrium.
Separately, game theory has played a role in online algorithms; in particular, the k-server problem, which has in the past been referred to as games with moving costs and request-answer games. [124] Yao's principle is a game-theoretic technique for proving lower bounds on the computational complexity of randomized algorithms , especially online ...
In game theory, the homicidal chauffeur problem is a mathematical pursuit problem which pits a hypothetical runner, who can only move slowly, but is highly maneuverable, against the driver of a motor vehicle, which is much faster but far less maneuverable, who is attempting to run him down. Both runner and driver are assumed to never tire.
An important problem in the theory of cooperative dynamic games is the time-consistency of a given imputation function (in Russian literature it is termed dynamic stability of optimality principle). Let say that a number of players has made a cooperative agreement at the start of the game.
In game theory, a correlated equilibrium is a solution concept that is more general than the well known Nash equilibrium. It was first discussed by mathematician Robert Aumann in 1974. [1] [2] The idea is that each player chooses their action according to their private observation of the value of the same public signal. A strategy assigns an ...
