A method to solve two-player zero-sum matrix games in chaotic environment

This research article proposes a method for solving the two-player zero-sum matrix games in chaotic environment. In a fast growing world, the real life situations are characterized by their chaotic behaviors and chaotic processes. The chaos variables are defined to study such type of problems. Classical mathematics deals with the numbers as static and less value-added, while the chaos mathematics deals with it as dynamic evolutionary, and comparatively more value-added. In this research article, the payoff is characterized by chaos numbers. While the chaos payoff matrix converted into the corresponding static payoff matrix. An approach for determining the chaotic optimal strategy is developed. In the last, one solved example is provided to explain the utility, effectiveness and applicability of the approach for the problem.Abbreviations: DM= Decision Maker; MCDM = Multiple Criteria Decision Making; LPP = Linear Programming Problem; GAMS= General Algebraic Modeling System

Matrix Game with Payoffs Represented by Triangular Dual Hesitant Fuzzy Numbers

Matrix Game with Payoffs RepresentedDue to the complexity of information or the inaccuracy of decision-makers’ cognition, it is difficult for experts to quantify the information accurately in the decision-making process. However, the integration of the fuzzy set and game theory provides a way to help decision makers solve the problem. This research aims to develop a methodology for solving matrix game with payoffs represented by triangular dual hesitant fuzzy numbers (TDHFNs). First, the definition of TDHFNs with their cut sets are presented. The inequality relations between two TDHFNs are also introduced. Second, the matrix game with payoffs represented by TDHFNs is investigated. Moreover, two TDHFNs programming models are transformed into two linear programming models to obtain the numerical solution of the proposed fuzzy matrix game. Furthermore, a case study is given to to illustrate the efficiency and applicability of the proposed methodology. Our results also demonstrate the advantage of the proposed concept of TDHFNs

(R1976) A Novel Approach to Solve Fuzzy Rough Matrix Game with Two Players

This paper proposes a new method for solving a two-person zero-sum fuzzy matrix game with goals, payoffs, and decision variables represented as triangular fuzzy rough numbers. We created a pair of fully fuzzy rough linear programming problems for players. Triangular fuzzy rough numbers can be used to formulate two fuzzy linear programming problems for the first player in the form of upper approximation intervals and lower approximation intervals. Two problems for the second player can be created in the same way. These problems have been split into five sub-crisp problems for the player first and five sub-crisp problems for the player second. The solution to the game can be obtained by solving these ten fuzzy linear programming problems. To demonstrate the method, a numerical example is provided. Using Wolfram Cloud, optimal strategies and game values are calculated for various parameters. Sensitivity analysis is carried out by altering the values of parameters

A Laplace's principle based approach for solving fuzzy matrix games

We introduce a solution for matrix games with fuzzy payoffs via the α -cuts and the introduction of Nature as a third player expressing the uncertainty involved in the game. The beliefs of players about the behavior of Nature are based on the Laplace’s principle of “insufficient reason”. Moreover, we provide a procedure for computing the introduced solution

A Fictitious Play Algorithm for Matrix Games with Fuzzy Payoffs

Fuzzy matrix games, specifically two-person zero-sum games with fuzzy payoffs, are considered. In view of the parametric fuzzy max order relation, a fictitious play algorithm for finding the value of the game is presented. A numerical example to demonstrate the presented algorithm is also given

Characterization of Nash Equilibrium Strategy for Heptagonal Fuzzy Games

In this paper, the Nash equilibrium strategy of two-person zero-sum games with heptagonal fuzzy payoffs is considered and the existence of Nash equilibrium strategy is studied. Also, based on the fuzzy max order several models in heptagonal fuzzy environment is constructed and the existence of their equilibrium strategies is proposed. In the sequel, the existence of Pareto Nash equilibrium strategies and weak Pareto Nash equilibrium strategies is investigated for fuzzy matrix games. Finally, the relation between Pareto Nash equilibrium strategy and parametric bi-matrix games is established
