www.cs.cornell.eduPure Strategy Nash Equilibrium A strategy vector s = (s 1;:::;s k) is a pure strategy Nash Equilibrium (pure Nash) if c i (s) c i(s0;s i) for all i, and for all s0 i 2S i. Intuitively, no player is able to decrease their cost through unilateral action (choosing another of their strategies while everybody else remains the same).

www.cdam.lse.ac.ukNash equilibrium A Nash equilibrium, also called strategic equilibrium, is a list of strategies, one for each player, which has the property that no player can unilaterally change his strategy and get a better payoff. Payoff A payoff is a number, also called utility, that reflects the desirability of an outcome to a player, for whatever reason.

people.math.sc.eduThe Nash equilibrium of (Fink, Fink) is the pure strategy Nash equilibrium for the Prisoner’s Dilemma. For nite normal form games, Nash equilibria are guaranteed to exist in mixed strategies, which will be intro-duced later. Additionally, we note that in a symmetric game (that is, a game where each player has the same

homepages.cwi.nlthe vector of bids (0,4,5,5) is a Nash equilibrium with player 3 being the winner. Finally, notice the following strange consequence of the above theorem: in no Nash equilibrium the last player, n, is a winner. The reason is that we resolved the ties in the favour of a bidder with the lowest index. Indeed, by

Phase Equilibrium: If there is more than 1 phase present, phase characteristics will stay constant over time. Phase diagrams tell us about equilibrium phases as a function of T,
