  2. Front crawl - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front_crawl

    The front crawl or forward crawl, also known as the Australian crawl [1] or American crawl, [2] is a swimming stroke usually regarded as the fastest of the four front primary strokes. [3] As such, the front crawl stroke is almost universally used during a freestyle swimming competition, and hence freestyle is used metonymically for the front crawl.

  3. Folk theorem (game theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folk_theorem_(game_theory)

    Conditions on G (the stage game) – whether there are any technical conditions that should hold in the one-shot game in order for the theorem to work. Conditions on x (the target payoff vector of the repeated game) – whether the theorem works for any individually rational and feasible payoff vector, or only on a subset of these vectors.

  4. Game theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_theory

    Mean field game theory is the study of strategic decision making in very large populations of small interacting agents. This class of problems was considered in the economics literature by Boyan Jovanovic and Robert W. Rosenthal, in the engineering literature by Peter E. Caines, and by mathematicians Pierre-Louis Lions and Jean-Michel Lasry.

    Determined game (or Strictly determined game) In game theory, a strictly determined game is a two-player zero-sum game that has at least one Nash equilibrium with both players using pure strategies. [2] [3] Dictator A player is a strong dictator if he can guarantee any outcome regardless of the other players.

  6. Solution concept - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_concept

    In game theory, a solution concept is a formal rule for predicting how a game will be played. These predictions are called "solutions", and describe which strategies will be adopted by players and, therefore, the result of the game. The most commonly used solution concepts are equilibrium concepts, most famously Nash equilibrium.

  7. Fictitious play - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fictitious_play

    The game is a potential game (Monderer and Shapley 1996-a,1996-b) The game has generic payoffs and is 2 × N (Berger 2005) Fictitious play does not always converge, however. Shapley (1964) proved that in the game pictured here (a nonzero-sum version of Rock, Paper, Scissors), if the players start by choosing (a, B), the play will cycle ...

  8. Strategy (game theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategy_(game_theory)

    In applied game theory, the definition of the strategy sets is an important part of the art of making a game simultaneously solvable and meaningful. The game theorist can use knowledge of the overall problem, that is the friction between two or more players, to limit the strategy spaces, and ease the solution.

  9. GNS theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNS_theory

    GNS theory is an informal field of study developed by Ron Edwards which attempts to create a unified theory of how role-playing games work. Focused on player behavior, in GNS theory participants in role-playing games organize their interactions around three categories of engagement: Gamism, Narrativism and Simulation.
