Abstract:
The problem of finding Nash equilibria in noncooperative strategic form games can be expressed using several equivalent formulations. These formulations admit a variety of algorithmic approaches. This article summarizes the current state of available software implementations for solving the Nash equilibrium problem, and outlines general advice for approaching the analysis of any given game.
