Two More Classes of Games with the Fictitious Play Property

Berger, Ulrich - EconWPA - 2004

It is known that every continuous time fictitious play process approaches equilibrium in every nondegenerate 2x2 and 2x3 game, and it has been conjectured that convergence to equilibrium holds generally for 2xn games. We give a simple geometric proof of this.
