Satisficing Equilibrium (with Bassel Tarbush)
We propose a solution concept in which each agent does not necessarily optimize but selects one of their top k actions. Our concept modifies Nash equilibrium to account for bounded rationality. We study the prevalence, axiomatic and positive foundations, sufficient conditions for existence, and an application of our solution concept.
