Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The hybrid play has been proposed as a new approach in the stochastic evolutionary game theory, which investigates the stability and the selection of equilibria in games. As a preliminary study, this research focused its attention to the stability of equilibria with respect to the iterated eliminations of dominated strategies. An investigation of the interchangeability condition led to a new concept of a game, the pairwise solvable game. The class of pairwise solvable games is rich enough to include various games that frequently appear in applications, such as the electoral competition games, the rent-seeking games, and the tournament games. It is shown that the set of equilibria in a pairwise solvable game is interchangeable. Under a quasiconcavity condition, a generic pairwise solvable game with a linearly ordered strategies has a symmetric equilibrium. More important, if a quasiconcave pairwise solvable game is finite, it is dominance solvable.
