Quantum Stackelberg Duopoly in a Noninertial Frame
Salman Khan, M. Khalid Khan
Abstract
We study the influence of the Unruh effect on quantum Stackelberg duopoly. It is shown that the acceleration of a noninertial frame strongly affects the payoffs of the Arms. The validation of the subgame perfect Nash equilibrium is limited to a particular range of acceleration of the noninertial frame. The benefit of the initial state entanglement in the quantum form of the duopoly in the inertial frame is adversely affected by the acceleration. The duopoly can become a follower advantage only in a small region of the acceleration.
