A Dynamic Model of Conflict and Cooperation

the second term overpowers it. Indeed, differentiation of the left-hand side of (C.7), which is
denoted by
Φ (Z), with respect to Z yields

dΦ (Z)    1 7ρ

-=Γ~ = —Zδ

dZ    ρn

which implies that for smaller values of Z the left-hand side of (C.7) takes a positive slope,
while for larger values of
Z that takes a negative slope. Noting that Φ (0) = 0, these results
together imply that the function
Φ (Z) displays a U-shaped curve, as illustrated in Fig.3. This
diagram shows that for larger values of
c3, as happens with c03 in Fig.3, (C.7) is satisfied at
any value of
Z and thus a (Z)=1is a global solution to the HJB equation (C.5), whereas for
smaller values of
c3 as happens with c030 in Fig.3, it is satisfied for smaller Z, is then violated,
and finally is satisfied for larger values of
Z again. ■
