Ans.- (C)
If you choose S, then Alice chooses NS. At (S,NS) no player has any incentive to switch to some other strategy. Hence its a nash equilibrium.
Similarly,if you choose NS then Alice will choose S. At (NS,S) ,no player has any incentive to switch to some other strategy. Hence its a nash equilibrium.
If you have any doubt feel free to ask.

Problem 1. (20 points) Consider a game with two players, Alice and Bob. Alice can choose A or B. The game ends if she chooses A while it continues to Bob if she chooses B. Bob then can choose C or D. If he chooses C the game ends, and if he chooses D the game continues to Alice. Finally, Alice can choose E or F and the game ends after each of these choices. a. Present this game as...

Playing chicken: Tommy and Billy drive their cars directly at each other and each must make a simultaneous strategic decision—to swerve out of the way of the other car, or to continue straight. Both drivers believe that if the other swerves while he continues straight, he wins respect (payoff =2) and the other driver loses reputation (payoff = 0). If neither swerves, both drivers wreck (payoff for each = -10). If both drivers swerve and avoid collision, no harm is...

Problem 2.(20 points) Consider the following game: In the first step, Alice has two $10 bills and can take one of the following two actions: (i) she can give S20 to Bob or (ii) she can give one of the S10 bills to Bob. All the money will be used to buy popcorns before the movie they will see. Each one dollar of popcorn gives one unit of payoff for the player who buys it. In the second step, they...

Consider the following two-period repeated game. The stage game is the following: payoff S H C S 3,3 0,1 0,0 H 1,0 1,1 6,0 C 0,0 0,6 5,5 (a) Find all pure-strategy Nash equilibria if the stage game is played only once. (b) Now consider the two-period game. Suppose the discount factor δ = 1 for both players. Find a subgame perfect equilibrium in which each player receives a total payoff of at least 8. (c) For what other values...

In previous rounds of the Golden Balls game show, these players have built up a jackpot of £47,250. Now, they must decide how the jackpot will be distributed. Each player in this round of has two strategies: split or steal. The payoffs to each player depend on the strategies played: If both choose split, they each receive half the jackpot. If one chooses steal and the other chooses split, the steal contestant wins the entire jackpot and the split contestant...

Design an O(n)-time non-losing strategy for the first player,
Alice, in the coins in-a-line game. Your strategy does not have to
be optimal, but it should be guaranteed to end in a tie or better
for Alice.
