Optimal strategies for two-person normalized matrix game with variable payoffs

This paper considers a two-person zero-sum game model in which payoffs are varying in closed intervals. Conditions for the existence of saddle point for this model is studied in this paper. Further, a methodology is developed to obtain the optimal strategy for this game as well as the range of the corresponding optimal values. The theoretical development is verified through numerical example.
