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...

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...

Asynchronous Congestion Games
We introduce a new class of games, asynchronous congestion games (ACGs). In an ACG, each player has a task that can be carried out by any element of a set of resources, and each r...
