Cooperation Prevails: Punishment Strategies Foster Dynamic Information Sharing Among Agents
The article explores how self-interested agents decide whether to share information in a dynamic game. They find that in a short-term game, agents don't share information, but in a long-term game, cooperation can be maintained through punishment strategies based on agents' beliefs. These strategies can lead to optimal choices in certain situations, and the researchers have identified specific regions where cooperation is most likely to occur.
