Abstract

This paper compares the sets of Nash, coalition-proof Nash and strong Nash equilibrium payoffs of normal form games which are closely related. We propose sufficient conditions for equivalent or closely related games to have identical sets of equilibrium payoffs.

Keywords and Phrases: Payoff equivalence, Strong Nash equilibrium, Coalition-proof Nash equilibrium, Correlation device.

JEL Classification: C72
