Quantum Games and Economics through Teleportation

Quantum Information Science and Technology (QIST) is reshaping computing and communication, with wide-ranging implications for economics, from market structures to strategic decision-making. Building on these breakthroughs, this paper bridges quantum concepts and economics through Quantum Energy Teleportation (QET)—a protocol enabling energy transfer as a quantum commodity among multiple agents. By incorporating superposition, entanglement, and measurement into classical economic models, we derive new game-theoretic strategies and equilibria unreachable in purely classical frameworks. We delve into monopoly, location games, contestable markets, perfect competition, and duopoly, introducing quantum variations of traditional Bertrand and Cournot models. Moreover, we address moral hazard, free-riding, and other public-goods challenges through a quantum lens, unveiling unconventional strategies that transcend classical limits. Building on these insights, we incorporate entangled resources into matching theory, opening up entirely new possibilities for achieving stable and optimal allocations. These findings foreshadow a nascent field of Quantum Information Economics . JEL Codes: C79, D82, D86, E26, L11, P28
