Compute the Nash equilibria of the following location game. There are two people who simultaneously select numbers between zero and one. Suppose player 1 chooses s1 and player 2 chooses s2 . If si < sj , then player i gets a payoff of (si + sj )>2 and player j obtains 1 − (si + sj )>2, for i = 1, 2. If s1 = s2 , then both players get a payoff of 1>2. Please make sure to explain why the Nash Equilibrium (if exists) is what it is.

Q2 Contribution Game Consider the following game. There are four players. Each player i (wherei 1,2,3,4) si multaneously and independently selects her contribution s E [0, 10]. Each player gets a benefit related to all of the players choices of s,'s, but incurs a cost related to her own contribution s In particular, the payoff to each player i is given by: ul (s1 , s2, s3, s.) = si + s2 + s3 + 84-0.5s (a) Find best response...

The following simultaneous-move game is with two players. The payoff of player i=1,2 is ui(si,sj)=si(1-si+1asj), where is is a strategy of player i and sj is a strategy of player j. a is between 0 and 1. strategies are non-negative real numbers. What is the best response function of player i and equilibrium strategy?

Consider the following version of the Rock-Paper-Scissors game.
The two players have to choose simultaneously between
Rock(R), Paper(P) or Scissors(S).
According to this game, R beats S, S
beats P, P beats R. The winner gets 1
dollar from the other player. In case of a tie,the referee gives
both players 2 dollars. Payoffs for all possible choices are
summarized in the table below. Find all Nash Equilibria.
