Santo Daniele SpinaThis contribution arose out of the idea of providing a collection of photographs of the chess players who were active in Sicily from 1500 to 1979 to both non-specialist enthusiasts as well as to scholars specializing in the history of chess. The collection of 300 photographs contains three different series: Portraits of Chess players, Simultaneous exhibitions and tournaments, A romantic game of chess. The key parameter that I adopted is definided by documented chess activities in Sicily, regardless of birhplace of the chess player. This criterion exsplains the inclusion in the index of Sicilian chess players, of players who are Italian but not Sicilian, as well as foreigners who reside, either for a limited period of time or permanently, in Sicily. Each entry of Portraits of Chess players schematically presents the following data: 1. family name and first name; 2. place and date of birth and death; 3. location of chess activity and chronology; 4. brief description of the chess player: table or correspondence player, problemist, Problem and Study solver, contributor to chess journals, columnist, positions held in local chess circle, membership in the Italian Chess Union (USI) or in Italian Chess Federation (FSI) or in Italian Correspondence Chess Association (ASIGC); 5. photographs. Entries associated an extensive bibliography have been kept to a minimum and only present information that refers to a detaidel bibliography already cited in previous publications, along with newly appearing bibliographic items to complete the record. This reference work could be extended in the future. I hope that initiatives of this type can also be extended to other cities or regions of Italy for the progress of scientific studies dedicated to our national chess history. The author would appreciate being notified regarding any inaccuracies or errors, since he is conscious of the impossibility of producing a work that is «perfect» and free of defects, notwithstanding his profuse and diligent zeal.

On the Structural Difference between the Evolutionary Approach of Young and that of Kandori, Mailath, and Rob2000 •
We provide robust examples of symmetric two-player coordination games in normal form that reveal that equilibrium selection by the evolutionary model of Young (1993) is essentially different from equilibrium selection by the evolutionary model of Kandori, Mailath and Rob (1993).

We consider a stylised model of a financial market where assets are traded over two periods by three agents: two fund managers and a third large trader that represents the rest of the market. Fund managers are rewarded at the end of the second period by a bonus that is awarded to the manager that obtains the best cumulative performance. We show that, even when information is symmetric, inefficient herding may be observed as an equilibrium outcome. Herding among fund managers occurs when the size of the rest of the market is large, but finite, so that the impact of the herd on equilibrium prices is not negligible abd indeed destabilising for asset prices.

Agenda control in coalition formation2002 •
Theoretical models of government formation in political science usually assume that the head of state is non-strategic. In this paper, we analyze the power of an agenda setter who chooses the order in which players are recognized to form coalitions in simple games. We characterize those sets of players which can be imposed in the equilibrium coalition and show that the only decisive structures where the agenda setter can impose the presence of any minimal winning coalition are apex games, where a large player forms a winning coalition with any of the small players. Keywords: Government Formation, Agenda Control, Coalitional Bargaining, Finite Bargaining Rules.
