Research Abstract

I address the following fundamental questions on game theory:
・ If there exist multiple equilibria, which one is plausible as a prediction?
・ How can we predict about the behavior of myopic players in repeated situations?
I answer the questions especially in strategic situations with group structures by using “nested potential functions” and “saddle functions.”
