- Question 4. Zeynep and Mehmet will eventually play the following game. Mehmet L R U 3,1 0,0 Zeynep D 0,3 1,3 In a preliminary stage, Zeynep has already asked Mehmet to allow her to move first and proposed to pay him 1 unit of her own payoff in exchange. So Mehmet has to options: • If he accepts Zeynep's offer: they will play the sequential move version of the above game in which Zeynep moves first. Mehmet will receive 1 unit of utility more, and Zeynep will receive 1 unit of utility less (in any outcome of the game) compared to the payoffs given in the bimatrix. 2 • If he rejects Zeynep's offer: they will play the simultaneous move game. a. Represent this strategic interaction in a game tree. b. How many information sets does each player have? c. Characterize the set of pure strategies for both players. d. Present this game as a normal-form game, and characterize the set of pure strategy Nash equi- libria.The next 3 questions involve the following game. There are two players, a husband and wife. They can either be selfish (S) or selfless (U) in their marriage. If they choose to be selfish, then there is a negative ʻguilt’ payoff of g. The payoff matrix is below.

- 2 Consider Anna and Joe, who value a certain good by the same amount v and can choose to either contribute (C) e to get the good or not (N) where v > e> 0. Obtaining the good only requires c from one person. The game is summarized in the payoff table below: Joe V-c,V-c V-c,V v,V-c 0,0 Find a pure strategy equilibrium and a mixed strategy equilibrium. Anna O Z5. Consider a simultaneous game in which player A chooses one of two actions (Up or Down), and B chooses one of two actions (Left or Right).

Find the Nash equilibrium or equilibria. b. Which player, if any, has a dominant strategy? A Up2. Consider a game that game theory people refer to as the “ultimatum game.”We will refer to our two players as the “offerer” and the “decider”. How the gameworks is that the offerer proposes a way to split $1000 between the two players.While this could be done in a variety of ways, we will assume that the offerersonly has two possible proposals: Either a 50-50 split, or she offers the decider$50 and keeps the rest. The decider can either accept or reject the offer. If the offer is accepted, the money is split as proposed. If the offer is rejected, themoney spontaneously combusts and nobody gets anything. a) List the strategies for each player and write an extensive form version of thegame with payouts. b) List all the Nash equilibria of this game. c) Explain which, if any of the Nash equilibrium are not sub-game perfect. d) Write the game out in normal form and find the pure strategy Nashequilibrium.

- 2. Consider the following "centipede game." The game starts with player 1 choosing be- tween terminate (T) and continue (C). If player 1 chooses C, the game proceeds with player 2 choosing between terminate (t) and continue (c). The two players choose be- tween terminate and continue in turn if the other player chooses continue until the terminal nodes with (player l's payoff, player 2's payoff) are reached as shown below. TTTT Player 1 Player 2 Player 1 Player 2 (3, 3) t (1, 1) (0, 3) (2, 2) (1, 4) (a) List all possible strategies of each player. (b) Transform the game tree into a normal-form matrix representation.

John Go Down (4,1) Left Mary Stop (2,5) Right (6,-1) (John as player 1 and Mary as player 2) By backward induction, find a Nash equilibrium and the corresponding payoffs. 2. Eve and Noa start with $10 in each of their piles. They take turns choosing one of two actions, continue or stop, with Eve choosing first. Each time a player says continue, $10 will be removed from her pile, and $20 will be added to the other player's pile. The game automatically stops when the total amount in their piles reaches $60. (Eve as player 1 and Noa as player 2) (b) By backward induction, find a Nash equilibrium and the corresponding payoffs.1. Consider the game where initially She chooses between "Stay Home" and "Go Out". If She chooses "Stay Home" then She gets 2 and He gets 0. If She chooses "Go Out" then they each simultaneously choose "Movie" or "Concert" where the payoffs are 0,1 or 3 as in the Battle of the Sexes Game. What are the subgame perfect Nash Equilibria of this game ?
