Abstract
Abstract Mathematical game theory considers situations in which two or more people control some, but not all, variables necessary to determine the outcome(s) of a particular event. Based upon these outcomes players receive certain payments. As such, each player strives to formulate a strategy which will maximize his winnings. Mathematical “games” are used to address problems in such diverse areas as economics, politics, military strategy, moral philosophy and urban development. In works such as Strategy and Duel, Iannis Xenakis formulated some of the first artistic applications of mathematical games. This paper presents a detailed analysis of his most recent piece to use such games, Linaia‐Agon.
