Outline of Final Research Achievements

The concept of Nash equilibrium has played a central role as a solution concept in game theory. However, when a game has multiple Nash equilibria, the players face a problem which equilibrium they should play. To treat this problem, Hofbauer(1999) introduced the concept of spatial dominance by means of the stability of a constant stationary solution, which corresponds to a Nash equilibrium, to a reaction-diffusion system. That a Nash equilibrium is spatially dominant means that if it initially prevails on a large finite part of the space, then it takes over the whole space in the long run. In this research project we investigated the selection criterion of spatial dominance.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

空間支配の概念は、危険支配やナッシュ積などの均衡選択の他の重要な概念と密接に関係していることが知られているが、一般のゲームに対する空間支配による均衡選択の基準は、まだ知られていない。また、空間支配の概念を導入する際に用いた、不連続な非線形項を持つ放物型方程式系に対する初期値問題の解の存在と一意性の問題も、特定のゲームの場合を除いて未解決である。本研究では、これらの問題を部分的に解決することができた。
