| 1. | This allows for a player to randomly select a pure strategy.
|
| 2. | They thus have an infinite number of available pure strategies, indeed a continuum.
|
| 3. | A "'mixed strategy "'is an assignment of a probability to each pure strategy.
|
| 4. | However, all the pure strategies in this game are rationalizable.
|
| 5. | The mixed strategy hence represents the distribution of pure strategies chosen by each population.
|
| 6. | Player Y plays the pure strategy of 1 / 2.
|
| 7. | Note that one player ( WLOG X ) is forbidden from using a pure strategy.
|
| 8. | With capacity constraints, there may not exist any pure strategy Nash equilibrium, the so-called Edgeworth paradox.
|
| 9. | The two pure strategy Nash equilibria are unfair; one player consistently does better than the other.
|
| 10. | This game has no pure strategy Nash equilibrium.
