Popis: | The worst-case Lipschitz constant of an $n$-player $k$-action $\delta$-perturbed game, $\lambda(n,k,\delta)$, is given an explicit probabilistic description. In the case of $k\geq 3$, $\lambda(n,k,\delta)$ is identified with the passage probability of a certain symmetric random walk on $\mathbb Z$. In the case of $k=2$ and $n$ even, $\lambda(n,2,\delta)$ is identified with the probability that two two i.i.d.\ Binomial random variables are equal. The remaining case, $k=2$ and $n$ odd, is bounded through the adjacent (even) values of $n$. Our characterisation implies a sharp closed form asymptotic estimate of $\lambda(n,k,\delta)$ as $\delta n /k\to\infty$. Comment: earlier version was submitted to EC20 |
