A traveler-centric mobility game: Efficiency and stability under rationality and prospect theory.

In this paper, we study a routing and travel-mode choice problem for mobility systems with a multimodal transportation network as a "mobility game" with coupled action sets. We formulate an atomic routing game to focus on the travelers' preferences and study the impact on the efficiency of the travelers' behavioral decision-making under rationality and prospect theory. To control the innate inefficiencies, we introduce a mobility "pricing mechanism," in which we model traffic congestion using linear cost functions while also considering the waiting times at different transport hubs.
