PRISONER’S DILEMMA THE MATHEMATICS OF BETRAYAL (AND DATING AND VARIOUS OTHER THINGS) Math Club 9/26/2011

Prisoner’s Dilemma?  Two criminals are arrested, but the police do not have enough information to convict them.  The two men are put into separate rooms and are given a deal by the police: to give information (in other words, betray the other) in exchange for freedom.  If neither prisoner betrays the other, then the police cannot convict them and has to let them both off with a light, 1 month sentence.  If one prisoner betrays the other, then the ‘betrayer’ gets away free, and the ‘betrayee’ gets a heavy, 1 year sentence.  If both prisoners betray each other, then both get a medium, 3 month sentence.

Let’s try this!  We will play five rounds.  The goal is to get as many points as possible, not to beat your opponent.

(Naïve) Mathematical Analysis  If they cooperate, you’re better off defecting.  If they defect, you’re still better off defecting.  Result: you should always defect.  Yet cooperating yields the most overall net gain… CooperateDefect Cooperate(3,3)(0,5) Defect(5,0)(1,1)

Dating…  … can be extremely problematic.

Dating  You arrange a date with a friend at the Stampede.  But when you get there, you discover that the Stampede is huge and you have no idea where to look for her.  You prefer to go to the horseracing show, while your date prefers to go to the cooking show.  However, both of you prefer to be with each other and go to the same place, rather than be alone.  You know that your date has to make the same decision.  Should you go to the horseracing show or the cooking show?

(Naïve) Mathematical Analysis  If they cooperate, you’re better off defecting.  If they defect, you’re better off cooperating.  But if you cooperate, they’re better off defecting and if you defect, they’re better off defecting.  Result: ????????? Cooperate (Horseracing) Defect (Cooking) Cooperate (Cooking)(1,1)(4,5) Defect (Horseracing)(5,4)(2,2)

Did math fail us?!  Well, sort of.  But if we are God…

Kant’s Categorical Imperative  In other words, assume that everyone in the world acts and makes decisions in the same way that you do.  Then how should you act? "Act only according to that maxim whereby you can, at the same time, will that it should become a universal law.“ – Immanuel Kant

Prisoner’s Dilemma  Clearly it’s better if everyone cooperates all the time than if everyone defects all the time. CooperateDefect Cooperate(3,3)(0,5) Defect(5,0)(1,1)

Optional Exercise  What if you’re ‘meh’ about your date and you would rather watch horseracing alone rather than cooking with your date?  How often should you cooperate, assuming Kant’s categorical imperative?
