On the hardness of game equivalence under local isomorphism

Joaquim Gabarró, Alina García, Maria Serna (2013)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

We introduce a type of isomorphism among strategic games that we call local isomorphism. Local isomorphisms is a weaker version of the notions of strong and weak game isomorphism introduced in [J. Gabarro, A. Garcia and M. Serna, Theor. Comput. Sci. 412 (2011) 6675–6695]. In a local isomorphism it is required to preserve, for any player, the player’s preferences on the sets of strategy profiles that differ only in the action selected by this player. We show that the game isomorphism problem for...

On the open-open game

Peg Daniels, Kenneth Kunen, Haoxuan Zhou (1994)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We modify a game due to Berner and Juhász to get what we call “the open-open game (of length ω)”: a round consists of player I choosing a nonempty open subset of a space X and II choosing a nonempty open subset of I’s choice; I wins if the union of II’s open sets is dense in X, otherwise II wins. This game is of interest for ccc spaces. It can be translated into a game on partial orders (trees and Boolean algebras, for example). We present basic results and various conditions under which I or II...

On the optimal reinsurance problem

Swen Kiesel, Ludger Rüschendorf (2013)

Applicationes Mathematicae

In this paper we consider the optimal reinsurance problem in endogenous form with respect to general convex risk measures ϱ and pricing rules π. By means of a subdifferential formula for compositions in Banach spaces we first characterize optimal reinsurance contracts in the case of one insurance taker and one insurer. In the second step we generalize the characterization to the case of several insurance takers. As a consequence we obtain a result saying that cooperation brings less risk compared...
