SUMMARY:Contagion and Control-Policy Games by Prof. Sanjiv Kapoor
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: We consider non-atomic games in populations provided with a choice of preventive policies to act against a contagion spreading amongst interacting populations\, be it biological organisms or connected computing devices. The spreading model of the contagion is the standard SIR model. Each participant in the population has a choice from amongst a set of precautionary policies\, with each policy presenting a payoff or utility\, assumed to be the same for individuals adopting that policy; the risk being the possibility of infection. The policy groups interact with each other. I also define a network model to model interactions between different population sets. The population sets reside at nodes of the network and follow a choice of policies specific to that node. We define game-theoretic models and study the computation of equilibrium and inefficiency (Price of Anarchy) of allowing for individual decision-making\, as opposed to centralized control. The POA is a function of the reproduction number of the contagion\,\n\nI will also include briefly some other results:\nhttps://royalsocietypublishing.org/rsos/article/12/10/242277/235987/Models-for-SARS-CoV-2-health-policies-social
