b) Two players, both with zero wealth, bargain over how to divide £X > 0 between them. Failure to reach agreement means both get nothing. Both players are expecled utility max- imisers. Player 1 has utility u(x) = x", where 0 < a < 1. Player 2 has utility u(x) = x, where 0< B <1. Determine the Nash solution for this problem and discuss.

- 7. Solving for dominant strategies and the Nash equilibrium Suppose Dmitri and Frances are playing a game in which both must simultaneously choose the action Left or Right. The payoff matrix that follows shows the payoff each person will earn as a function of both of their choices. For example, the lower-right cell shows that if Dmitri chooses Right and Frances chooses Right, Dmitri will receive a payoff of 7 and Frances will receive a payoff of 6. Frances Left Right Left 4, 3 6, 4 Dmitri Right 6, 7 7, 6 to choose The only dominant strategy in this game is for and Frances chooses The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Dmitri chooses vSuppose Edison and Hilary are playing a game in which both must simultaneously choose the action Left or Right. The payoff matrix that follows shows the payoff each person will earn as a function of both of their choices. For example, the lower-right cell shows that Edison chooses Right and Hilary chooses Right, Edison will receive a payoff of 3 and Hilary will receive a payoff of 7. Hilary Left Right Left 4, 6 6, 8 Edison Right 7, 5 3, 7 The only dominant strategy in this game is for to choose The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Edison chooses and Hilary choosesAmir and Beatrice play the following game. Amir offers an amount of money z € [0, 1] to Beatrice. Beatrice can either accept or reject. If Beatrice accepts, then Amir receives 1 - z dollars and Beatrice receives a dollars. If Beatrice rejects, then both receive no money. As in the Ultimatum Game, Amir cares only about maximizing the amount of money he receives. Beatrice, on the other hand, detests Amir, and therefore cares about the amount of money that both receive: if Amir receives y dollars and Beatrice receives a dollars, then Beatrice's payoff is a-ay where a > 0. (a) Find all pure strategy Nash equilibria of the game in which the two players choose simultaneously (thus Beatrice accepts or rejects without seeing Amir's offer). Solution: The NE are the strategy profiles in which Beatrice rejects and Amir's offer a satisfies 2-a(1-x) ≤0, i.e. r ≤a/(1+a). (b) Find all subgame perfect equilibria of the sequential game in which Amir first makes the offer and Beatrice observes the offer…

Both players know the payoffs at the end of each branch. Lee chooses A Aggression Cooperation Cody chooses 8 Multiple Choice C Cody chooses Aggression aggression: aggression Cooperation Aggression In the equilibrium of this game, Lee chooses Cooperation aggression; cooperation -10 for Lee -10 for Cody 40 for Lee O for Cody O for Leo 40 for Cody 25 for Lee 25 for Cody and then Cody chooses.Suppose that, in an ultimatum game, the proposer may not propose less than $1 nor fractional amounts, and therefore must propose $1, $2, …, or $10 (see image attached below).

Find the Nash equilibrium(s) for this game.b. Now assume Player 1 and Player 2 have distributional preferences. Specifically, both people greatly care about the utility of the other person. In fact, they place equal weight on their outcome and the other person’soutcome, ρ = σ = ½. Find the Nash equilibrium(s) with these utilitarianpreferences.c. Now consider the case where Player1 and Player2 do not like each other. Specifically, any positive outcome for the other person is viewed as anegative outcome for the individual, ρ = σ = -1. Find the Nashequilibrium(s) with these envious preferences.
