1、高级微观-博弈论Econ711February32014Peter NormanAssignment41. Consider a prisoners dilemma with stage game payors c dC2;20;3D3;01;1played twice.1.Sketch the extensive form.2. How many nodes are there in the extensive form?How many information sets?How many purestrategies?3. Write down the payomatrix for the
2、 reduced normal form.Assume that there is no discounting.4. Find all pure strategy Nash equilibria of the reduced normal form game.5. What are all Nash equilibria for the regular normal form?For each equilibrium,specify the equilibrium outcome and determine which equilibria are subgame perfect.6. Wh
