On extremal pure Nash equilibria for mixed extensions of normal-form games Original Research Article

In this paper we derive conditions under which mixed extensions of normal-form games have least and greatest Nash equilibria in pure strategies, and either of them gives best utilities among all mixed Nash equilibria when strategy spaces are complete separable metric spaces equipped with closed partial orderings, and the values of utility functions are in separable ordered Banach spaces. The obtained results are applied to supermodular normal-form games whose strategy spaces are multidimensional.
