Evolutionary approaches to joint nash - Pareto equilibria

Abstract

A new type of equilibrium incorporating different rationality types for finite non cooperative games with perfect information is introduced. The concept of strategic game is generalized in order to admit players with different rationalities. Generative relations are used to characterize several types of equilibria with respect to players rationality. An evolutionary technique for detecting it is considered. Numerical experiments show the potential of the method. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
