Abstract

A Cournot oligopoly is used as a benchmark for Nash equilibria tracking and detection in a dynamic setting. Several dynamics that induce different trajectories for the equilibria are considered: random, linear, cosine, and spiral. A new Extremal Optimization based method is tested on the proposed dynamic setting.
