How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T17228997 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

-
A.
Kuhn’s theorem
Kuhn’s theorem is a fundamental result in game theory that shows any finite extensive-form game with perfect recall has an equivalent normal-form (strategic-form) representation, ensuring the existence of mixed-strategy equilibria.
-
B.
“Extensive Games and the Problem of Information”
“Extensive Games and the Problem of Information” is a foundational paper in game theory by Harold W. Kuhn that formalizes extensive-form games and introduces key concepts for analyzing strategic interaction under imperfect information.
-
C.
expected utility theory (with John von Neumann)
Expected utility theory (with John von Neumann) is a foundational framework in economics and decision theory that models how rational agents make choices under uncertainty by maximizing the expected value of a utility function.
-
D.
Nash equilibrium
A Nash equilibrium is a game-theoretic solution concept where no player can improve their payoff by unilaterally changing their strategy, given the strategies of all other players.
-
E.
Kalai–Smorodinsky bargaining solution
The Kalai–Smorodinsky bargaining solution is a cooperative game theory concept that selects a fair agreement between parties by preserving proportional gains relative to their best possible outcomes.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
