Nash equilibrium uniqueness in nice games with isotone best replies

Abstract: We prove the existence of a unique pure-strategy Nash equilibrium in nice games with isotone chain-concave best replies and compact strategy sets. We establish a preliminary …xpoint uniqueness argument showing su¢ cient assumptions on the best replies of a nice game that guarantee the existence of exactly one Nash equilibrium. Then, by means of a comparative statics analysis, we examine the necessity and su¢ ciency of the conditions on (marginal) utility functions for such assumptions to be satis…ed; in partic… Show more
