This preface introduces the special issue on Dynamic Games for Modeling and Control of Epidemics. It showcases 12 papers with timely contributions to dynamic games and their applications to the modeling, analysis, and control of epidemics. ...
Social Distancing, Gathering, Search Games: Mobile Agents on Simple Networks [0.03%]
社交距离、聚会与搜索游戏：简单网络上的移动智能体

During epidemics, the population is asked to socially distance, with pairs of individuals keeping two meters apart. We model this as a new optimization problem by considering a team of agents placed on the nodes of a network. Their common a...
Game-Theoretical Model of the Voluntary Use of Insect Repellents to Prevent Zika Fever [0.03%]
博弈论视角下自愿使用驱蚊剂以预防寨卡病毒模型分析

Zika fever is an emerging mosquito-borne disease. While it often causes no or only mild symptoms that are similar to dengue fever, Zika virus can spread from a pregnant woman to her baby and cause severe birth defects. There is no specific ...

Social stigma can effectively prevent people from going out and possibly spreading COVID-19. Using the framework of replicator dynamics, we analyze the interaction between self-restraint behavior, infection with viruses such as COVID-19, an...
Mean Field Models to Regulate Carbon Emissions in Electricity Production [0.03%]
用于调节电力生产碳排放的 mean field 模型

The most serious threat to ecosystems is the global climate change fueled by the uncontrolled increase in carbon emissions. In this project, we use mean field control and mean field game models to analyze and inform the decisions of electri...
Epidemic Spreading and Equilibrium Social Distancing in Heterogeneous Networks [0.03%]

We study a multi-type SIR epidemic process within a heterogeneous population that interacts through a network. We base social contact on a random graph with given vertex degrees, and we give limit theorems on the fraction of infected indivi...

We consider a game for a continuum of non-identical players evolving on a finite state space. Their heterogeneous interactions are represented with a graphon, which can be viewed as the limit of a dense random graph. A player's transition r...
Mobility Choices and Strategic Interactions in a Two-Group Macroeconomic-Epidemiological Model [0.03%]
两组宏观流行病模型中的流动选择与策略性互动问题
Davide La Torre,Danilo Liuzzi,Rosario Maggistro et al.
Davide La Torre et al.
We analyze the implications of strategic interactions between two heterogeneous groups (i.e., young and old, men and women) in a macroeconomic-epidemiological framework. The interactions between groups determine the overall prevalence of a ...
Necessity of Social Distancing in Pandemic Control: A Dynamic Game Theory Approach [0.03%]

We model a society with two types of citizens: healthy and vulnerable individuals. While both types can be exposed to the virus and contribute to its spread, the vulnerable people tend to be more cautious as being exposed to the virus can b...

Since Downs proposed that the act of voting is irrational in 1957, myriad models have been proposed to explain voting and account for observed turnout patterns. We propose a model in which partisans consider both the instrumental and expres...
