Abstract

We study hierarchical games where the second stage consists of a finite noncooperative game. To ensure that the lower level problem admits solutions, its mixed extension is considered. By using the Shannon entropy, a regularization scheme for the two-stage game is introduced and some properties are presented, as the asymptotic subgame perfectness.
