QLS Seminar - Today at 14h00 - Maximin Stability in the Graph Model for Conflict Resolution: Forward and Preference Adjustment Approaches

[Quantitative Life Sciences]

Dear All,

Today,  Thu. 2 July at 14h00,  Leandro C. Rego (Statistics and Applied 
Math Department, Federal University of Ceara', Brazil) will give a 
seminar titled:

*"Maximin Stability in the Graph Model for Conflict Resolution: Forward 
and Preference Adjustment Approaches "
_
_*Conflicts are inherent to many human interactions and substantial 
costs are associated with unresolved conflicts. In this talk, I will 
give an introduction about the Graph Model for Conflict Resolution 
(GMCR), which has been successfully applied to model and analyze many 
real world strategic conflicts. After recalling the main stability 
concepts used within GMCR, I will focus on the Maximin stability, which 
has been shown to generalize to higher horizons of analysis some classic 
stability notions. I will present the Maximin both in the traditional 
forward approach that determines which conflict scenarios are stable 
given the actions than can be taken by decision makers and their 
preferences, and also in the preference adjustment approach, where a 
linear integer optimization model to determine minimal preference 
adjustment to make a desired scenario a Maximin equilibrium is proposed.

The seminar will take place in the *Common Area, 2nd floor, old SISSA 
building (Via Beirut, 2).*

You are all most welcome to attend!
