Large finite‐player games have strict equilibria, changing game theory forever.
Large finite-player games can have strict pure strategy Nash equilibria when the number of players is high. In these games, players' payoffs depend on the actions of others. The model presented shows that with differentiable payoff functions, these equilibria exist in non-atomic games. This means that equilibrium distributions in these games can be achieved by pure strategy Nash equilibria in large finite-player games.
