  9. Pareto efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_efficiency

    Pareto efficiency is mathematically represented when there is no other strategy profile s' such that u i (s') ≥ u i (s) for every player i and u j (s') > u j (s) for some player j. In this equation s represents the strategy profile, u represents the utility or benefit, and j represents the player. [6]
