Notes on game theory equilibria
This paper deals with the construction of numerical solution of the Black-Scholes (B-S) type equation modeling option pricing with variable yield discrete dividend payment at time . Firstly the shifted delta generalized function appearing in the B-S equation is approximated by an appropriate sequence of nice ordinary functions. Then a semidiscretization technique applied on the underlying asset is used to construct a numerical solution. The limit of this numerical solution is independent of the...
We consider a model for the control of a linear network flow system with unknown but bounded demand and polytopic bounds on controlled flows. We are interested in the problem of finding a suitable objective function that makes robust optimal the policy represented by the so-called linear saturated feedback control. We regard the problem as a suitable differential game with switching cost and study it in the framework of the viscosity solutions theory for Bellman and Isaacs equations.

JEL Classification: G21, L13.The paper builds an oligopoly model of a debit card network. It examines the competition between debit card issuers. We show that there is an optimal pricing for the debit card network, which maximizes all issuer’s revenues. The paper also shows that establishing a link between debit card networks averages the costs provided that there is no growth in the customer’s usage of the networks, resulting from the link.
A condition weaker than the insatiability condition is given.
