Existence and structure of Nash equilibria for supermodular games

Author

  • Lu Yu

Abstract

Two theorems announced by Topkis about the topological description of sublattices are proved. They are applied to extend some classical results concerning the existence and the order structure of Nash equilibria of certain supermodular games, with some problems in Zhou's proof corrected.
