\section{Preliminaries}

A two-player game is formally defined as follows.

\begin{definition}
A {\em 2-player game} is defined by a pair of $m \times n$ payoff matrices $(R, C)$, whose rows correspond to the strategies of one of the players of the game, called the {\em row player}, and whose columns correspond to the strategies of the other player, called the {\em column player}. The strategy sets of the row and column players are identified respectively with the sets $[m]:=\{1,\ldots,m\}$ and $[n]:=\{1,\ldots,n\}$.
\end{definition}

\noindent The following theorem was established by John Nash in 1951~\cite{Na}.

\begin{theorem}
Every game has a Nash equilibrium.
\end{theorem}
