''Equivalence between best responses and undominated strategies: a generalization from finite to compact strategy sets.''
( 2005, Vol. 3 No.7 )
 
 
For games with expected utility maximizing players whose strategy sets are finite, Pearce (1984) shows that a strategy is strictly dominated by some mixed strategy, if and only if, this strategy is not a best response to some belief about opponents' strategy choice. This note generalizes Pearce''s (1984) equivalence result to games with expected utility maximizing players whose strategy sets are arbitrary compact sets.
