Players 1, 2, and 3 are playing a game in which the strategy of player i isdenoted yi and can be any nonnegative real number. The payoff function for player 1 is V1(y1,y2,y3) = y1 + y1y2 - (y1)2,for player 2 is V2(y1,y2,y3) = y2 + y1y2 - (y2)2,and for player 3 is V3(y1,y2,y3) = (10 - y1 - y2 - y3)y3.These payoff functions are hill shaped. Find a Nash equilibrium. (Hint: Thepayoff functions are symmetric for players 1 and 2.)

Two business partners jointly own a firm and share equally the revenues. They individually and simultaneously decide how much effort to put into the firm. Let s₁ and s2 denote the effort choices of partner 1 and partner 2, respectively. Assume si € [0, 4]. The cost of effort is given by s? for i E {1, 2}. The firm's revenue is given by 4(81 +82 + bs182) where 0 ≤ b ≤ 1. (Note that the parameter 6 reflects the synergies between the effort levels. b> 0 implies that the more one partner works, the more productive the other partner is.) The payoffs for partners 1 and 2 are: u₁ (81, 82) u2 (81, 82) - = 1 [4(81 +82 +68182)] − 8² - 1 [4(81 +82 + bs182)] – $²

Problem 2. Consider the partnership-game we discussed in Lecture 3 (pages 81-87 of the textbook). Now change the setup of the game so that player 1 chooses x = [0, 4], and after observing the choice of x, player 2 chooses y ≤ [0, 4]. The payoffs are the same as before. (a) Find all SPNE (subgame perfect Nash equilibria) in pure strategies. (b) Can you find a Nash equilibrium, with player 1 choosing x = 1, that is not subgame perfect? Explain.
