A strategy profile in a multi-player game is a Nash equilibrium if no player can unilaterally deviate to achieve a strictly better payoff. A profile is an $\epsilon$-Nash equilibrium if no player can gain more than $\epsilon$ by…

We show that when $C(K)$ does not have few operator -- in the sense of Koszmider [P. Koszmider, Banach spaces of continuous functions with few operators. Math. Ann. 300 (2004), no. 1, 151 - 183.] -- the sets of operators which are not weak…

Matthew Baker investigated, in previous work, an elegant, infinite-length game that may be used to study subsets of real numbers. We present two accessible examples of how an important technique from set theory, or a different technique…

We prove that the Teichm\"uller space of surfaces of genus $\mathbf{g}$ with $\mathbf{p}$ punctures contains balls which are not convex in the Teichm\"uller metric whenever $3\mathbf{g}-3+\mathbf{p} > 1$.

In repeated-game applications where both the collusive and non-collusive outcomes can be supported as equilibria, researchers must resolve underlying selection questions if theory will be used to understand counterfactual policies. One…

We study Manneville-Pomeau maps on the unit interval and prove that the set of points whose forward orbits miss an interval with left endpoint 0 is strong winning for Schmidt's game. Strong winning sets are dense, have full Hausdorff…

We relate the property of discrete selectivity and its corresponding game, both recently introduced by V.V. Tkachuck, to a variety of selection principles and point picking games. In particular we show that player II can win the discrete…

In 1990, Mermin presented a n player game that is won with certainty using n spin-1/2 particles in a GHZ state whilst no classical strategy (or local theory) can win with probability higher than ${1/2} + \frac{1}{2^{\lceil n/2 \rceil}}$…

We show that Mazur's conjecture on the real topology of rational points on varieties implies that there is no diophantine model of the rational integers in the rational numbers. We also prove that there is a diophantine model of the…

We construct a Banach space satisfying that the nearest point map (also called proximity mapping or metric projection) onto any compact and convex subset is continuous but not uniformly continuous. The space we construct is locally…

This paper introduces a notion of weak solution for the coupled system of master equations in mean field games with a major player. It extends the previously introduced notion of Lipschitz solutions in mean field games. By relying on a…

We analyse the computational complexity of finding Nash equilibria in simple stochastic multiplayer games. We show that restricting the search space to equilibria whose payoffs fall into a certain interval may lead to undecidability. In…

We prove a uniformly continuous linear extension principle in topological vector spaces from which we derive a very short and canonical construction of the Lebesgue integral of Banach space valued maps on a finite measure space. The Vitali…

For a constant $K\geq 1$ let $\mathfrak{B}_K$ be the class of pairs $(X,(\mathbf e_n)_{n\in\omega})$ consisting of a Banach space $X$ and an unconditional Schauder basis $(\mathbf e_n)_{n\in\omega}$ for $X$, having the unconditional basic…

We study a combinatorial game derived from a problem in the German National Mathematics Competition. In this game, two players take turns removing numbers from a finite set of natural numbers, aiming to satisfy a certain divisibility…

The main purpose of the paper is the proof of a cardinal inequality for a space with points $G_\delta$, obtained with the help of a long version of the Menger game. This result improves a similar one of Scheepers and Tall.

This paper studies the bounded approximation property (BAP) in quasi Banach spaces. In the first part of the paper we show that the kernel of any surjective operator $\ell_p\to X$ has the BAP when $X$ has it and $0<p\leq 1$, which is an…

Conjectures have historically played an important role in the development of pure mathematics. We propose a systematic approach to finding abstract patterns in mathematical data, in order to generate conjectures about mathematical…

Projection games constitute an important class of nonlocal games where, for any answer from the first player, there is a unique correct answer for the second player. This class of games captures nonlocal games arising from constraint…

In this note, we study the geometry of the unit ball of the Banach space generated by the adequate family of all subsets of branches of the infinite binary tree, and answer several open questions related to slicely countably determined…
