2. Actions and Transitions

Let \tilde{A} \ni a_{j} denote the finite action set of each individual (small) player j \in \mathcal{Z}. Then A := \tilde{A}^{\mathcal{Z}} \ni a, denotes the N_{z}-copies of an individual’s action space—i.e. the set of action profiles a. The finite set A has N_{a} := |A| number of action profiles.

For each action profile a \in A, its associated Markov transition probability function is a linear operator P(a): D \rightarrow D.

Relevant functions \blacktriangleright

A_ProfileSet(self)

Returns the finite set A of N_{a} action profiles of individual small players. A numeric array of size N_{a} \times N_{z}.

TransProbA(self)

Returns the finite set of Markov maps P(a): D \rightarrow D, one for every a \in A. A numeric array of size N_{z} \times
N_{z} \times N_{a}.
