Abstract:

A class of non-cooperative games in which the players share a common set of strategies is described. The payoff a player receives for playing a particular strategy depends only on the total number of playing the same strategy and decreases monotonously with that number in a manner which is specific to the particular player. It is shown that each game in this class possesses at least one Nash equilibrium in pure strategies.
