A Behavioral Foundation for Models of Evolutionary Drift
Uriarte Ayo, José Ramón
(2005-07)
Binmore and Samuelson (1999) have shown that perturbations (drift) are crucial to study the stability properties of Nash equilibria. We contribute to this literature by providing a behavioural foundation for models of ... -
A Game-Theoreteic Analysis of Minority Language Use in Multilingual Societies
Uriarte Ayo, José Ramón (Departamento Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, 2015-10)
This chapter studies multilingual democratic societies with highly developed economies. These societies are assumed to have two languages with official status: language A, spoken by every individual, and language B, spoken ... -
A Model of Evolutionay Drift
Uriarte Ayo, José Ramón (2003-02)
Drift appears to be crucial to study the stability properties of Nash equilibria in a component specifying different out-of-equilibrium behaviour. We propose a new microeconomic model of drift to be added to the learning ... -
Doubts and Equilibria
Cabrales, Antonio; Uriarte Ayo, José Ramón (2008)
In real life strategic interactions, decision-makers are likely to entertain doubts about the degree of optimality of their play. To capture this feature of real choice-making, we present here a model based on the doubts ... -

Roughly one half of World's languages are in danger of extinction. The endangered languages, spoken by minorities, typically compete with powerful languages such as En- glish or Spanish. Consequently, the speakers of ... -
Minority Language and the Stability of Bilingual Equilibria
Iriberri Etxebeste, Nagore; Uriarte Ayo, José Ramón (2011)
We investigate a society with two official languages: A, shared by all individuals and B, spoken by a bilingual mirority. Thus, it is only B that needs t increase its population share, and therefore, only the language ... -
The Economics of "Why is it so hard to save a threatened Language?"
Sperlich, Stefan; Uriarte Ayo, José Ramón (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2014-02)
We study the language choice behavior of bilingual speakers in modern societies, such as the Basque Country, Ireland andWales. These countries have two o cial languages:A, spoken by all, and B, spoken by a minority. We ... -
The Language Game: A Game-Theoretic Approach to Language Contact
Iriberri Etxebeste, Nagore; Uriarte Ayo, José Ramón (2006-06)
We study a society inside which two official languages, the majority language A and the minority language B, are in contact and compete for the same social functions. We propose a non-cooperative game to capture some ...
