What changed
Ranks finite strategy profiles through the stationary distribution of a mutation-selection Markov chain, retaining intransitive cycles rather than forcing a scalar transitive dominance interpretation.
Scientific scope
Ranks finite strategy profiles through the stationary distribution of a mutation-selection Markov chain, retaining intransitive cycles rather than forcing a scalar transitive dominance interpretation. The ranking depends on the supplied empirical strategy pool, payoffs and selection parameters. Polynomial work in the explicit payoff table can still be combinatorial in player count. The finite-intensity stationary ranking is not a Nash equilibrium or universal agent ordering. Equal-contributor marks identify Papadimitriou, Piliouras and Tuyls, not the first author.
