Congestion Games: Optimization in Competition
In a congestion game, several players simultaneously aim at allocating sets of resources, e.g., each player aims at allocating a shortest path between a source/destination pair in ...

On Pure and (approximate) Strong Equilibria of Facility Location Games
We study social cost losses in Facility Location games, where n selfish agents install facilities over a network and connect to them, so as to forward their local demand (expressed...

-Hardness of Pure Nash Equilibrium in Scheduling and Connection Games
We prove NP-hardness of pure Nash equilibrium for some problems of scheduling games and connection games. The technique is standard: first, we construct a gadget without the desir...

The Impact of Social Ignorance on Weighted Congestion Games
We consider weighted linear congestion games, and investigate how social ignorance, namely lack of information about the presence of some players, affects the inefficiency of pure...

The price of anarchy of finite congestion games
We consider the price of anarchy of pure Nash equilibria in congestion games with linear latency functions. For asymmetric games, the price of anarchy of maximum social cost is ( ...
