Domain-specific¶
- Matching pennies
- Its structural skeleton (strictly competitive payoffs, best-response cycle, unique mixed equilibrium, unpredictability as the equilibrium discipline) is shared by penalty kicks in football, tax-audit interactions, inspection games, pursuit-evasion in military and ecological contexts, and randomised protocols in cryptography, all of which are analysed as instances of the same anti-coordination zero-sum structure
This sourceAn undergraduate game-theory text carrying the structure itself - the minimax method for zero-sum games, the absence of a pure-strategy equilibrium, and the forced mixed equilibrium - together with its sporting instance (the tennis passing shot, and a section of empirical evidence on mixing) and its evolutionary instance (the Hawk-Dove game); its contents cover neither inspection and tax-audit games, nor pursuit-evasion, nor cryptographic protocols.
