Тема: NASH EQUILIBRIA (MIGRATION-PROOF GROUP STRUCTURES) IN MULTIDIMENSIONAL LOCATION PROBLEMS
Authors: A.Savvateev and S.Weber

Аннотация: 
Consider the following (almost classical) problem. We are given a continuous (nonatomic) demand for certain excludable public good ("club good''), which is distributed over a convex and compact subset of a normed finite-dimentional vector space. Any partition of consumers into several groups (each group is comprised of consumers using one and the same variety of that good) is a feasible outcome.

Transportation costs are given by a metric function generated by a certain norm on the underlying vector space. With a few number of varieties, the monetary cost is
lower while transportation is high; when there are many varieties to be produced, vice versa. Therefore, a trade-off arises.

A partition is called migration-proof if no consumer has incentive to change his group. (When changing his group, a given consumer also changes cost sharing mechanism, from the one adopted in his home group, to that in the group-to-be.) We will report on recent results in the above problem, which can be treated as Tiebout's (1956) inheritance.
