In this paper, we mainly study the problem of maximizing a concave function over an intersection of two matroids. We obtain that the submodularity may not be preserved, but it involves one maximal submodular problem (or minimal supermodular problem) with some conditions. Moreover, we also present examples showing that these conditions can be satisfied.

To extend the Myerson value, we define a mapping to describe local structures of coalitions and obtain a new solution for cooperative games, called Myerson value with local structures. We propose an axiomatic characterization of the Myerson value associated with local cooperative structures.

Second, we introduce the model of leader-follower games with infinitely many leaders and followers, that is, infiniteleader-infinite-follower game. We next introduce the notion of weakly cooperative equilibria for infinite-leader-infinite-follower games and prove the existence result.

Intuitionistic fuzzy number is considered in many real-life situations, so it makes perfect sense to address decision-making problem by using some specified intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. In this paper, intuitionistic fuzziness is characterized by a normal generalized triangular intuitionistic fuzzy number. A defuzzification method is introduced based on the proportional probability density function associated with the corresponding membership function, as well as the complement of non-membership function. Using the proposed ranking technique, a methodology is presented for solving bi-level programming for Stackelberg game. An application example is provided to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed methodology, and the achieved results are compared with the existing methods.

Driessen, Gen-Jiu Xu Journal of the Operations Research Society of China    2021, 9 (2): 344-357.   DOI: 10.1007/s40305-019-00279-4 Abstract （2044）      PDF       Knowledge map    Save In the framework of cooperative game theory, Sobolev (Advances in game theory, Izdat., “Minitis”, Vilnius, pp 151–153, 1973) axiomatized the well-known Shapley value by means of consistency property with reference to a specifically chosen reduced game. The goal of this paper is to generalize Sobolev’s consistency approach to the class of efficient, symmetric and linear values.

Hofbauer and H. Sandholm in 2009. We first construct a complete distance space M consisting of stable population games and show that most of stable population games have unique Nash equilibrium point that according to Baire’s category theorem. It implies that every stable population game that possesses more than one Nash equilibrium can be approached arbitrarily by a sequence of the stable population game each of which has a unique Nash equilibrium. Then, we construct a bounded rationality function and deduce some results on the generic well-posedness implying Tikhonov well-posedness and Hadamard well-posedness for stable population games.

We first prove the existence of competitive equilibria under some regular assumptions. Furthermore, we assume that there exists the cooperative behavior of different populations. By proving the existence of transferable utility (TU) core, we analyze the benefit distributions of population production economies with external increasing returns.
