Which of the following DOES NOT accurately describe a Nash equilibrium? O It is the set of strategies which provides the players with the highest possible combined payoffs. All of these choices accurately describe a Nash equilibrium. O It is a set of strategies such that no player can receive a higher payoff by changing only their own strategy. It is a set of strategies such that no player, after seeing what the other players' strategies were, regrets their choice of strategy. It is a set of strategies such that every player, after seeing what the other players' strategies were, is satisfied (if not actually happy) with their choice of strategy.
Which of the following statements about Nash Equilibria in a two-player one-shot simultaneous game is FALSE? O If one player has a dominant strategy, a Nash Equilibrium is guaranteed.

Consider the following price game: Firm 1 Firm 2 High Low High 20, 20 12, 24 Low 24, 12 14, 14 Remark: In simultaneous move games (games with rows and columns) theconvention is to write the row player’s payoff first and the column player’spayoff second. (a) What is the Nash equilibrium of this game? Recall that for each playeryou should find the best response to each of the opponents’ strategies andunderline the associated payoff. Then look for a cell where both strategiesare best responses to each other. This is a Nash equilibrium. (b) Does either firm have a dominate strategy (a strategy that is always abest response)?
A Nash equilibrium occurs when O no player has an incentive to unilaterally change strategies. each player has an incentive to unilaterally change strategies. O both players can cooperate to increase their payoffs. O no player can earn a higher payoff from any other strategy.

What do you think would happen?
Consider a repeated game with the following stage game: Player 1 O O O Cooperate Not Cooperate This game is repeated T-120 times, and t each period both players must choose their actions simultaneously. The players are deciding whether or not to cooperate specifically, whether or not to follow this cooperation strategy: r≤ 3 S|S|AW|N N|H "Each player will play cooperate as long as no one has played Not Cooperate before. If someone has played Not Cooperate before, then each player will play Not Cooperate forever." rs 5 rs Player 2 In this case, cooperation will be possible if the interest rate r is Not Cooperate 5,15 10, 10 None of the above Cooperate 12, 12 15,5
