SUMMARY

The discussion centers on defining a firm's decision problem within the context of game theory. A decision problem is characterized as a question that typically yields a binary yes or no answer, as outlined in complexity theory. The inquiry highlights the need for additional context to accurately formulate the decision problem, suggesting that it cannot be reduced to a simple equation equating probabilities. The lack of specific details limits the ability to provide a comprehensive solution.

Here is just a general question.

I've got a game theory question, which asks to solve a firm's decision problem. How do I define the decision problem? Is it an equation that equates the total probability of all the events to some outcomes?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
A quick look on Wikipedia defines a decision problem (in complexity theory) as a question with a yes or no answer. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_problem
