The known results regarding two-player zero-sum games are naturally generalized in complex space and are presented through a complete compact theory. The payoff function is defined by the real part of the payoff function in the real case,…

In this article we consider a consistent convex feasibility problem in a real Hilbert space defined by a finite family of sets $C_i$. We are interested, in particular, in the case where for each $i$, $C_i=Fix (U_i)=\{z\in \mathcal H\mid…

Kakutani's fixed point theorem is a generalization of Brouwer's fixed point theorem to upper semicontinuous multivalued maps and is used extensively in game theory and other areas of economics. Earlier works have shown that Sperner's lemma…
