Pricing design for robustness in linear quadratic games

We show that designing prices to induce a socially optimal Nash equilibrium that is robust to small parameter perturbations in a linear-quadratic game can be framed as a convex program. In addition, we use a similar analysis to develop convex conditions that guarantee that the induced equilibrium is stable with respect to small deviations in players' feedback strategies.
