A projection framework for near-potential games
Potential games are a special class of games that admit tractable static and dynamic analysis. Intuitively, games that are "close" to a potential game should enjoy somewh...

Flows and Decompositions of Games: Harmonic and Potential Games
In this paper we introduce a novel flow representation for finite games in strategic form. This representation allows us to develop a canonical direct sum decomposition of an arbi...

Approximating pure nash equilibrium in cut, party affiliation, and satisfiability games
Cut games and party affiliation games are well-known classes of potential games. Schaffer and Yannakakis showed that computing pure Nash equilibrium in these games is PLScomplete....

The price of uncertainty
We study the degree to which small fluctuations in costs in wellstudied potential games can impact the result of natural best-response and improved-response dynamics. We call thi...
