  • A situation where players keep changing their strategies to gain more payoff
  • A situation where each player tries to maximize their own payoff without considering others' strategies
  • A situation where no player can increase their payoff by unilaterally changing their strategy (correct)
  • A situation where players collaborate to maximize their collective payoff
  • When is (A, B) a Nash equilibrium in a game involving Alice and Bob?

  • When Alice has no other strategy that does better than A in response to Bob choosing B, and Bob has no other strategy that does better than B in response to Alice choosing A (correct)
  • When Alice and Bob both choose the same strategy
  • When Alice and Bob have equal payoffs with their chosen strategies
  • When Alice's strategy A is always better than Bob's strategy B
