Question 6Which game has no mixed Nash equilibrium, i.e., no Nash equilibrium where at least one player chooses random behavior? Choose the correct game with a correct reason. 1 pointThe coordination game, because payoffs for each player are the same across two Nash equilibria. The battle of the Sexes, because players have made a promise where to visit during the next holiday. The matching pennies, because the result of a coin-toss trial can be perfectly predicted by today’s science. The prisoner’s dilemma, because defection is best for both players and they do not consider that mutual cooperation can be attained.

Solution

The game that has no mixed Nash equilibrium, i.e., no Nash equilibrium where at least one player chooses random behavior, is the coordination game. This is because the payoffs for each player are the same across two Nash equilibria.

Consider an application of the Prisoner’s Dilemma game where two countries in a cartel decide whether to Cooperate or Defect. If both choose to follow the cartel agreement and continues cooperating with each other, each receives a payoff of 2. If both decide to defect on each other, they both get -2. If one player cooperates and the other defects, then the one cooperates loses 10 (receives -10) while the other player gets 0 . Denote the probability of cooperating for Player 1 as p and for Player 2 as q.How much does Player 1 earn in the mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium of this game?Write your answer as a decimal with 2 decimal places (e.g. 0.25)
