Abstract

It is argued that when morphisms are ignored virtuallyallcoalitional, strategic and extensive game formats as currently employed in the extant game-theoretic literature may be presented in a fairly natural way as (concrete categories over) discrete subcategories ofChu(Set,2). Moreover, under a suitable choice of coalitional morphisms, coalitional game formats are shown to be (concrete categories over)fullsubcategories ofChu(Set,2).
