In this paper, we deal with games with fuzzy payoffs. We proved that players who are playing a zero-sum game with fuzzy payoffs against Nature are able to increase their joint payoff, and hence their individual payoffs by cooperating. It is shown that, a cooperative game with the fuzzy characteristic function can be constructed via the optimal game values of the zero-sum games with fuzzy payoff...

In this paper, we investigate a two-person zero-sum game with fractional loss function, which we call the two-person zero-sum fractional game. We are interested in a game value and a saddle point of the two-person zero-sum game and observe that they exist under various conditions. But, in many cases, it seems to be difficult to search directly for a game value and a saddle point of the fraction...

Economists use the word rational in a narrow way. To an economist, a rational actor is someone who makes decisions that maximize her (or his) preferences subject to constraints imposed by the environment. So, this actor knows her preferences and knows how to go about optimizing. It is a powerful approach, but it probably is only distantly related to what you mean when you think of yourself as r...

In 1954, O.G. Haywood used game theory to analyze the military decisions used in the Battle of the Bismarck Sea, a battle fought during the World War II. Haywood analyzed the Battle of the Bismarck Sea by using a two-person zero-sum game [1]. This paper discusses the fundamental concepts of the two-person zero-sum game and some Nash Equilibrium dominance ideas as well as the strategies applied ...
