Some additional definitions for game theory:
positive sum game: The payoff to one player added to the payoff of the
other player is
positive (so, theoretically, both players can win -- that is, gain from the
game). A type of non-zero-sum game.
negative sum game: The payoff to one player added to the payoff of the
other player is
negative (so, theoretically, both players can lose -- that is, lose from the
game). A type of non-zero-sum game.
tit-for-tat -- players do to the other what was done to them. So if one
firms sets a high
price, the other follows. If one player cheats, so does the other.
Usually in sequential games.
