The formal definitions -- Optimal responses to specific strategies -- The maximin strategy -- The minimax strategy -- Solutions of zero-sum games -- 2 x n and m x 2 games -- Dominance -- Symmetric games -- Poker-like games -- Pure maximin and minimax strategies -- Pure nonzero-sum games -- Mixed strategies for nonzero-sum games -- Finding mixed Nash equilibria for 2 x 2 nonzero-sum games. The mathematical theory of games was first developed as a model for situations of conflict, whether actual or recreational. It gained widespread recognition when it was applied to the theoretical study of economics by von Neumann and Morgenstern in Theory of Games and Economic Behavior in the 1940s. The later bestowal in 1994 of the Nobel Prize in economics on Nash underscores the important role this theory has Mathematics Game theory. Modèles Mathématiques.
