Coalition formation in the triad when two are weak and one is strong

Eighteen groups of subjects each participated in five different computer-controlled superadditive 3-person characteristic function games with sidepayments, that modeled negotiable conflicts in which two of the players are weak and one is considerably stronger. Both the degree to which the strong player was powerful and the type of communication were experimentally manipulated. The 90 game outcomes rejected any solution concept that predicts a single payoff vector for a given coalition structure, but supported the recently developed single-parameter α-power model that allows range predictions. Both the degree of power and type of communication were found to affect game outcomes and to determine the predictive power of models that make point predictions in 3-person games.

On the exponential exponents of discrete linear systems

In this paper we introduce the concepts of exponential exponents of discrete linear time varying systems. It is shown that these exponents describe the possible changes in the Lyapunov exponents under perturbation decreasing at infinity at exponential rate. Finally we present formulas for the exponential exponents in terms of the transition matrix of the system.     

Non-commutative Markov chains and multi-analytic operators

We study a model of repeated interaction between quantum systems which can be thought of as a non-commutative Markov chain. It is shown that there exists an outgoing Cuntz scattering system associated to this model which induces an input-output formalism with a transfer function corresponding to a multi-analytic operator, in the sense of multivariate operator theory. Finally we show that observability for this system is closely related to the scattering theory of non-commutative Markov chains.     

An application of cooperative game among container terminals of one port

In this paper a two-stage game that involves three container terminals located in Karachi Port in Pakistan is discussed. In the first stage, the three terminals have to decide on whether to act as a singleton or to enter into a coalition with one or both of the other terminals. The decision at this stage should presumably be based on the predicted outcome for the second stage. The second stage is here modelled as a Bertrand game with one outside competitor, the coalition and the terminal in Karachi Port (if any) that has not joined the coalition. Furthermore, three partial and one grand coalition among the three terminals at Karachi Port are investigated. The concepts of “characteristic function” and “core” are used to analyse the stability of these coalitions and this revealed that one combination does not satisfy the superadditivity property of the characteristic function and can therefore be ruled out. The resulting payoffs (profits) of these coalitions are analysed on the basis of “core”. The best payoff for all players is in the case of a “grand coalition”. However, the real winner is the outsider (the terminal at the second port) which earns a better payoff without joining the coalition, and hence will play the role of the “orthogonal free-rider”.

Quaternionic structures

Any oriented 4-dimensional real vector bundle is naturally a line bundle over a bundle of quaternion algebras. In this paper we give an account of modules over bundles of quaternion algebras, discussing Morita equivalence, characteristic classes and K-theory. The results have been used to describe obstructions for the existence of almost quaternionic structures on 8-dimensional Spin^c manifolds in ?adek et al. (2008) [5] and may be of some interest, also, in quaternionic and algebraic geometry.     

水中气泡光散射动态特征及其与水粒光散射特征的对比研究

基于VirtualLab虚拟仿真软件建立了粒径在几十到几百微米内不同大小和形状的气泡模型。对其在平面光照射下的散射进行了仿真模拟,得到了气泡的前向、后向光散射特征分布,将结果与水粒的光散射特征进行比较分析,发现:同一气泡前向散射远大于后向散射,但两者拥有十分相近的变化趋势。光源和气泡大小影响气泡远场散射幅值的大小、振荡频率、角宽度及次极大与主极大的比值。气泡结构的对称性影响着气泡远场散射的对称性。气泡与水粒的远场散射特性既联系又区别。该研究的结果可以为气泡的分析检测提供了一定的理论依据。     

Self-similar Solutions of Nonlinear Elasticity and Poroelasticity Equations

Recent advances in nonlinear wave propagation in elastic and porous elastic (poro-elastic) material have presented new nonlinear evolutionary equations. The derivation of these equations in three-dimensional space is based on the semilinear Biot theory. The nonlinear elastodynamic equations are derived form the more general model of poro-elastodynamic using consistency arguments. For simplicity, we discuss and carry out the analysis for the nonlinear elastic model. It is found in this article that the methods of symmetry groups and self-similar solutions can furnish solutions to the nonlinear elastodynamic wave equation. It is also found that these models lead to shock wave development in finite time. Necessary conditions for the existence of the solution are given and well-posedness of the Cauchy problem is discussed.
