We study how to learn to play a Pareto-optimal strict Nash equilibrium when there exist multiple equilibria and agents may have different preferences among the equilibria. We focu...
The digraphs P(n, k) have vertices corresponding to length k permutations of an n set and arcs corresponding to (k + 1) permutations. Answering a question of Starling, Klerlein, K...
