• Abstract summary: We focus on finding the Kantian equilibrium strategies in the general form of $2times 2$ symmetric games. We show that a very large part of $2times 2$ symmetric games have more beneficial Kantian equilibria when they are played with the use of quantum strategies.

• Abstract: The aim of the paper is to examine the notion of simple Kantian equilibrium in $2 \times 2$ symmetric games and their quantum counterparts. We focus on finding the Kantian equilibrium strategies in the general form of the games. As a result, we derive a formula that determines the reasonable strategies for any payoffs in the bimatrix game. This allowed us to compare the payoff results for classical and quantum way of playing the game. We showed that a very large part of $2\times 2$ symmetric games have more beneficial Kantian equilibria when they are played with the use of quantum strategies.

  equilibria in multiplayer games are neither unique nor non-exploitable. This paper takes an initial step towards addressing these challenges by focusing on the natural objective of equal share. We design a series of efficient algorithms, inspired by no-regret learning, that provably attain approximate equal share across various settings.

  Non-concave games introduce significant game-theoretic and optimization challenges. We show that when $Phi$ is finite, there exists an efficient uncoupled learning algorithm that converges to the corresponding $Phi$-equilibria. We also show that Online Gradient Descent can efficiently approximate $Phi$-equilibria in non-trivial regimes.

  We study a faithful translation of a two-player quantum Morra game, which builds on previous work by including the classical game as a special case. We propose a natural deformation of the game in the quantum regime in which Alice has a winning advantage, breaking the balance of the classical game. We discuss potential applications of the quantum Morra game to the study of quantum information and communication.

  The standard game-theoretic solution concept, Nash equilibrium, assumes that all players behave rationally. We propose a new solution concept called safe equilibrium that models opponents as behaving rationally with a specified probability. We prove that a safe equilibrium exists in all strategic-form games, and prove that its computation is PPAD-hard.
