Exponential Communication Separations between Notions of Selfishness
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We show exponential separations between all three of these quantities, already for just two players. ...
That is, we first construct an f such that f can be implemented in communication c, but any EPIC implementation of f (with any choice of payments) requires communication exp(c). ...
Moreover, there is an exponential separation between the communication complexity for computing f and the communication complexity of any EPIC implementation of f , i.e., CC(f ) = O(log n) CC EP IC (f ...

Coalition formation through learning in autonomic networks
2009
2009 International Conference on Game Theory for Networks
However, due to resource constraints, nodes are generally selfish and try to maximize their own benefit when participating in the network. ...
The dynamics of coalition formation proceed via nodes that interact strategically and adapt their behavior to the observed behavior of others. ...
If two members of separate coalitions decide to activate the edge between them, then the two coalitions merge into one. ...
