Games With Simple Strategies
In the area of game theory, more specifically on non-cooperative game, Lipton together with E.Markakis and A.Mehta proved the existence of epsilon-equilibrium strategies with support logarithmic in the number of pure strategy. Furthermore, the payoff of such strategies can epsilon-approximate the payoffs of exact Nash equilibrium. The limited size (logarithmic) of support provides a natural quasi-polynomial algorithm of computing an epsilon-equilibrium.
