Abstract
The aim of the paper is to examine pure Nash equilibria in a quantum game that extends the classical bimatrix game of dimension 2. The strategies of quantum players are specific types of two-parameter unitary operations such that the resulting quantum game is invariant under isomorphic transformations of the input classical game. We formulate general statements for the existence and form of Nash equilibria and discuss their Pareto efficiency. We prove that, depending on the payoffs of a classical game, the corresponding quantum game may or may not have Nash equilibria in the set of unitary strategies under study. Some of the equilibria cease to be equilibria if the players’ strategy set is the three-parameter special unitary group.
