Abstract:
We study a class of two-player optimal stopping games (Dynkin games) of preemption type, with uncertainty about the existence of competitors. The set-up is well-suited to model, for example, real options in the context of investors who do not want to publicly reveal their interest in a certain business opportunity. We show that if the underlying process is a Rd-valued, continuous, strong Markov process, and the stopping payoff is a continuous function (with mild integrability properties) there exists a Nash equilibrium in randomised stopping times for the game. Moreover, the equilibrium strategies and the expected payoffs of the two players are computed explicitly in terms of the corresponding one-player game. To the best of our knowledge this is the first paper to address this version of Dynkin games.
