Nash Equilibrium Point

Bioeconomic modeling of the exploitation of biological resources such as fisheries has gained importance in recent years. In this work we propose to define and study a bioeconomic equilibrium model for two fishermen who catch three species taking into consideration the fact that the prices of fish populations vary according to the quantity harvested; these species compete with each other for space or food; the natural growth of each species is modeled using a logistic law. The main purpose of this work is to define the fishing effort that maximizes the profit of each fisherman, but all of them have to respect two constraints: the first one is the sustainable management of the resources and the second one is the preservation of the biodiversity. The existence of the steady states and their stability are studied using eigenvalue analysis. The problem of determining the equilibrium point that maximizes the profit of each fisherman leads to Nash equilibrium problem; to solve this problem we transform it into a linear complementarity problem (LCP); then we prove that the obtained problem (LCP) admits a unique solution that represents the Nash equilibrium point of our problem. We close our paper with some numerical simulations.

This paper is concerned with a type of time-symmetric stochastic system, namely the so-called forward–backward doubly stochastic differential equations (FBDSDEs), in which the forward equations are delayed doubly stochastic differential equations (SDEs) and the backward equations are anticipated backward doubly SDEs. Under some monotonicity assumptions, the existence and uniqueness of measurable solutions to FBDSDEs are obtained. The future development of many processes depends on both their current state and historical state, and these processes can usually be represented by stochastic differential systems with time delay. Therefore, a class of nonzero sum differential game for doubly stochastic systems with time delay is studied in this paper. A necessary condition for the open-loop Nash equilibrium point of the Pontriagin-type maximum principle are established, and a sufficient condition for the Nash equilibrium point is obtained. Furthermore, the above results are applied to the study of nonzero sum differential games for linear quadratic backward doubly stochastic systems with delay. Based on the solution of FBDSDEs, an explicit expression of Nash equilibrium points for such game problems is established.

The Impact

We define and study a tritrophic bioeconomic model of Lotka-Volterra with a prey, middle predator, and top predator populations. These fish populations are exploited by two fishermen. We study the existence and the stability of the equilibrium points by using eigenvalues analysis and Routh-Hurwitz criterion. We determine the equilibrium point that maximizes the profit of each fisherman by solving the Nash equilibrium problem. Finally, following some numerical simulations, we observe that if the price varies, then the profit behavior of each fisherman will be changed; also, we conclude that the price change mechanism improves the fishing effort of the fishermen.

Nash Equilibrium Point

In this paper, a real estate game model with nonlinear demand function is proposed. And an analysis of the game's local stability is carried out. It is shown that the stability of Nash equilibrium point is lost through period-doubling bifurcation as some parameters are varied. With numerical simulations method, the results of bifurcation diagrams, maximal Lyapunov exponents and strange attractors are presented. It is found that the chaotic behavior of the model has been stabilized on the Nash equilibrium point by using of nonlinear feedback control method.

Abstract Increasing the fossil fuels consumption, pollution and rising prices of these fuels have led to the expansion of renewable resources and their replacement with conventional sources. In this paper, a robust algorithm for a micro-grid (MG) planning with the goal of maximizing profits is presented in day-ahead market. The energy resources in MG are wind farms (WFs), photovoltaic (PV), fuel cell (FC), combined heat and power(CHP) units, tidal steam turbine (TST) and energy storage devices (ESDs). This algorithm is divided into two main parts: (1) Optimal planning of each energy resource; (2) Using the Nash equilibrium –genetic algorithm (NE-GA) hybrid method to determine the optimal MG strategy. In energy resources optimal planning, using a stochastic formulation, the generation bids of each energy resource is determined in such a way that the profit of each one is maximized. Also, the constraints of renewable and load demands and selection the best method of demand response (DR) program are investigated. Then the Nash equilibrium point is determined using the primary population produced in the previous step using the NE-GA hybrid method to determine the optimal MG strategy. Thus, using the ability of the genetic algorithm method, the Nash equilibrium point of the generation units is obtained at an acceptable time, and This means that none of the units are willing to change their strategy and that the optimal strategy is extracted. Comparison of results with previous studies shows that the expected profit in the proposed method is more than other method.

We give a suitable definition of Hadamard well-posedness for Nash equilibria of a game, that is, the stability of Nash equilibrium point with respect to perturbations of payoff functions. Our definition generalizes the analogous notion for minimum problems. For a game with continuous payoff functions, we restrict ourselves to Hadamard well-posedness with respect to uniform convergence and compare this notion with Tykhonov well-posedness of the same game. The main results are: Hadamard implies Tykhonov well-posedness and the converse is true if the payoff functions are bounded. For a zero-sum game the two notions are equivalent.
