Intrinsic robustness of the price of anarchy
The price of anarchy (POA) is a worst-case measure of the inefficiency of selfish behavior, defined as the ratio of the objective function value of a worst Nash equilibrium of a g...

How Do You Like Your Equilibrium Selection Problems? Hard, or Very Hard?
The PPAD-completeness of Nash equilibrium computation is taken as evidence that the problem is computationally hard in the worst case. This evidence is necessarily rather weak, in ...

Pure Nash equilibria: complete characterization of hard and easy graphical games
We consider the computational complexity of pure Nash equilibria in graphical games. It is known that the problem is NP-complete in general, but tractable (i.e., in P) for special...

Equilibria in topology control games for ad hoc networks
We study topology control problems in ad hoc networks, where network nodes get to choose their power levels in order to ensure desired connectivity properties. Unlike most other w...

Strategic Multiway Cut and Multicut Games
We consider cut games where players want to cut themselves off from different parts of a network. These games arise when players want to secure themselves from areas of potential i...
