    • Characterization of envy free solutions for queuing problems 

      Esmerok, İbrahim Barış (Bilkent University, 2006)
      In this study we are working on queuing problems. In our model a solution to a queuing problem is an ordering of agents and a transfer vector where the sum of the transfers of agents is equal to zero. Hence a queuing ...

    • Consistency and population monotonicity in social and economic networks

    • Games of sharing airport costs 

      Yüksel, Ayşe Müge (Bilkent University, 2009)
      In this study, noncooperative games defined for various cooperative solution concepts in airport problems have been addressed. The existence of a relationship between the design of the games and the equilibrium outcomes ...

    • Non-cooperative game theory under prospect theory 

      Keskin, Kerim (Bilkent University, 2016-05)
      This dissertation consists of three essays in which I study prospect theory preferences in non-cooperative game-theoretic frameworks. In decision-making experiments, it is commonly observed that actual choice behavior might ...

    • A study of extensions of the stable rule for roommate problems 

      İşbilen, Asu (Bilkent University, 2018-08)
      Roommate problems might not have a stable solution. But for such problems we are still faced with the problem of matching the agents. One natural approach would be to match the agents in such a way that the resulting ...

    • Wage implications of foreign direct investment with salary adjustment process 

      Özcan, Elif (Bilkent University, 2012)
      The main objective of this thesis is to analyse theoretically the implications of increasing foreign direct investment (FDI) on the wages of workers and on the profits of firms in the local country which is previously ...
