Strategic Game

A strategic game (or normal-form game) is a tuple \((I, (S_i)_{i \in I}, (u_i)_{i \in I})\) where \(I\) is a set of players, \(S_i\) is the strategy set of player \(i\), and \(u_i \colon \prod_{j \in I} S_j \to U\) is the payoff function of player \(i\).

In the Lean formalization, this is a structure with fields strategy : N → Type* and payoff : Profile → N → U, where Profile = ∀ i, strategy i.
