''Imitation, local interaction, and efficiency: reappraisal''
( 2012, Vol. 32 No.1 )
 
 
We revisit the model of Alos-Ferrer and Weidenholzer (2006) but under the assumption that risk-dominant equilibria are Pareto efficient. It is found that risk-dominant equilibria, non-risk-dominant equilibria, and some non-monomorphic states can emerge in the long run when players interact with their immediate neighbors only.
 
 
Keywords: Coordination game, imitation, local interaction
