Chicken (game) respectively. The line in graph on the left shows the optimum probability of playing the escalated strategy for player Y as a function of "x". The line in the second graph shows the optimum probability of playing the escalated strategy for player X as a function of "y" (the axes have not been rotated, so the dependent variable is plotted on the abscissa, and the independent variable is plotted on the ordinate). The Nash equilibria are where the players' correspondences agree, i.e., cross. These are shown with points in the right hand graph. The best response mappings agree (i.e., cross)
Entitative graph Entitative graph An entitative graph is an element of the diagrammatic syntax for logic that Charles Sanders Peirce developed under the name of qualitative logic beginning in the 1880s, taking the coverage of the formalism only as far as the propositional or sentential aspects of logic are concerned. See 3.468, 4.434, and 4.564 in Peirce's "Collected Papers". The syntax is: The semantics are: A "proof" manipulates a graph, using a short list of rules, until the graph is reduced to an empty cut or the blank page. A graph that can be so reduced is what is now called a
