New competitive mediator games framework for autonomous routing markets

This paper introduces competitive mediator games, a new framework for analyzing equilibria in markets, particularly for autonomous routing and driving (ARAD) services. These games generalize correlated equilibria and are shown to be limits of algorithmic no-regret learning dynamics. The research demonstrates that in anonymous congestion games with market-share maximizing mediators, all competitive mediator equilibria result in monopolies when one mediator is weakly preferred by all users. The authors also provide an overview of ARAD markets and discuss future mechanism design. AI

    Competitive mediator games and urban CAV routing markets

    Inspired by possible future markets of autonomous routing and driving (ARAD), we introduce competitive mediator games and their equilibria which generalize the (coarse) correlated equilibria, which have become a popular research area recently as they not only can be more socially…
