Talk:Subgame perfect equilibrium

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The second sentence says "A strategy set is a subgame perfect equilibrium if (...)", and "strategy set" is a link to the "strategy" page. However, that page does not define anything called "strategy set". Instead, it defines a "strategy profile", which I *think* is what is meant here. I won't change it, though, because I'm not 100% sure that this is the right correction. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable will read this?

Yes, that is correct. Have updated. 129.67.98.222 18:51, 2 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Example

[edit]

I think different wording should be used instead of "Wheel Ripper". There must be better terminology

How about A={Swerve, Don't Swerve}? 24.7.169.193 (talk) 06:11, 7 June 2010 (UTC)D[reply]

"Dynamic Game" and "sequential game"

[edit]

I propose to replace "dynamic game" with "sequential game" here and in other articles. The term "dynamic game" is redirected to "sequential game". Both terms are used in game theory articles, apparently the meaniong is exatly the same.

The use of different terms for the same meaning should be avoided. "Sequential game" opposed to "simultaneous game",is a self explaining term, "dynamic game" is not. --RomualdoGrillo 17:12, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think dynamic game is more general: it merely states that there is a time dimension. The repetition of a simultaneous game is dynamic, yet not sequential.Koczy (talk) 22:49, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If the two terms have a different meaning,the redirect "dynamic game" to "sequential game" should be replaced with a definition for "dynamic game" with a link to "sequential game". The term is "dynamic game" is used just in the list of terms related to Game theory. It is also used here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_theory but not with the meaning you explained wikipedia pages,the two terms are used as synonymous. My guess is that we should add a definition of the term "dynamic game" and maybe remove it from the list of important therms related to game theory because it is seldom used (in my personal experience).
