In this paper, we consider the problem of finding a Nash equilibrium in a multi-player game over generally connected networks. This model differs from a conventional setting in that players have partial information on the actions of their…
In this work, the cross-layer design problem of joint multiuser detection and power control is studied using a game-theoretic approach. The uplink of a direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) data network is considered and a…
In this paper, we study joint power control and scheduling in uplink massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with randomly arriving data traffic. We consider both co-located and Cell-Free (CF) Massive MIMO, where the…
In this paper, we study a general online linear programming problem whose formulation encompasses many practical dynamic resource allocation problems, including internet advertising display applications, revenue management, various routing,…
We consider a classical multiple access system with a single transmission channel, finite number of users (users), and randomized transmission protocol (ALOHA). We assume that every user sends messages to the base station with various…
One common assumption in game theory is that any player optimizes a utility function that takes into account only its own payoff. However, it has long been observed that in real life players may adopt an altruistic or even spiteful…
In this paper, the problem of distributed power allocation is considered for the downlink of a cloud radio access network (CRAN) that is coexisting with a heterogeneous network. In this multi-tier system, the heterogeneous network base…
We study stable matching problems in networks where players are embedded in a social context, and may incorporate friendship relations or altruism into their decisions. Each player is a node in a social network and strives to form a good…
In cost sharing games, the existence and efficiency of pure Nash equilibria fundamentally depends on the method that is used to share the resources' costs. We consider a general class of resource allocation problems in which a set of…
We consider the provision of public goods on networks of strategic agents. We study different effort outcomes of these network games, namely, the Nash equilibria, Pareto efficient effort profiles, and semi-cooperative equilibria (effort…
The problem of efficient sharing of a resource is nearly ubiquitous. Except for pure public goods, each agent's use creates a negative externality; often the negative externality is so strong that efficient sharing is impossible in the…
Congestion game is a widely used model for modern networked applications. A central issue in such applications is that the selfish behavior of the participants may result in resource overloading and negative externalities for the system…
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as optimization modules in agentic systems, yet the fundamental limits of such LLM-mediated improvement remain poorly understood. Here we propose a theory of LLM information…
In this paper, a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system with partial channel state information (CSI) for downlink and uplink transmission in mobile scenarios is considered, i.e., users are deployed randomly and will move casually…
The challenge of designing an efficient Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol and analyzing it has been an important research topic for over 30 years. This paper focuses on the performance analysis (through simulation) and modification of a…
In multi-hop ad hoc networks, selfish nodes may unduly acquire high quality of service (QoS) by assigning higher priority to source packets and lower priority to transit packets. Such traffic remapping attacks (TRAs) are cheap to launch,…
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) in the power-domain has been recognized as a promising technique to overcome the bandwidth limitations of current visible light communication (VLC) systems. In this letter, we investigate the power…
This is an initial manuscript that presents the basic idea of "slightly altruistic Nash equilibrium", "bi-layer game topology", "rolling horizon target selection". This manuscript is just used for peer discussion and joint Ph.D. application…
We seek to understand the fundamental mathematics governing infrastructure-scale interactions between humans and machines, particularly when the machines' intended purpose is to influence and optimize the behavior of the humans. To that…
Social simulation provides a compelling testbed for studying social intelligence, where agents interact through multi-turn dialogues under evolving contexts and strategically adapting opponents. Such environments are inherently…
