  2. 1. Optimal stopping, incomplete information, and stochastic games

    Author : Yuqiong Wang; Erik Ekström; Sören Christensen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optimal stopping; sequential analysis; incomplete information; asymmetric information; stochastic filtering; Dynkin games; tug-of-war games; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : This thesis contains six papers on the topics of optimal stopping and stochastic games. Paper I extends the classical Bayesian sequential testing and detection problems for a Brownian motion to higher dimensions. We demonstrate unilateral concavity of the cost function and present its structural properties through various examples. READ MORE

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; spatial games; game theory; neutral theory; stochastic payoff; coalescent; infinite sites; infinite alles; cooperation; evolution;

    Abstract : .... READ MORE

  5. 3. Games and Probabilistic Infinite-State Systems

    Author : Sven Sandberg; Parosh Abdulla; Luca de Alfaro; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; program verification; model checking; determinacy; strategy improvement; infinite games; parity games; mean payoff games; stochastic games; Büchi games; reachability games; limiting average; limiting behavior; Markov chains; infinite-state systems; lossy channel systems; vector addition systems; noisy Turing machines; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Computer programs keep finding their ways into new safety-critical applications, while at the same time growing more complex. This calls for new and better methods to verify the correctness of software. We focus on one approach to verifying systems, namely that of model checking. READ MORE

  6. 4. A Probabilistic Approach to Non-Markovian Impulse Control

    Author : Johan Jönsson; Magnus Perninge; Säid Hamadène; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stochastic optimal control; optimal stopping; optimal switching; impulse control; Snell envelope; obstacle problems; partial differential equation; Matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : This thesis treats mathematical considerations that arise in relation to certain stochastic optimal control problems, in particular of switching and impulse type. Both of these problems are extensions of the well-known optimal stopping problem. READ MORE

  7. 5. Evolution and learning in games

    Author : Jens Josephson; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis contains four essays that analyze the behaviors that evolve when populations of boundedly rational individuals interact strategically for a long period of time. Individuals are boundedly rational in the sense that their strategy choices are determined by simple rules of adaptation -- learning rules. READ MORE
