Abstract

It is shown that the discount factor needed to solve an undiscounted mean payoff stochastic game to optimality is exponentially close to 1, even in one-player games with a single random node and polynomially bounded rewards and transition probabilities. For the class of the so-called irreducible games with perfect information and a constant number of random nodes, we obtain a pseudo-polynomial algorithm using discounts.
