The 11 pages that link to Zero-sum game, each with the reason it gives.

• ZeroRelated: The term uses zero to describe the total net payoff across participants.

• ScarcityCompared with: Scarcity can create trade-offs, but it does not make every economic interaction zero-sum.

• MinimaxNarrower topic: In two-player zero-sum games, maximizing one player’s value is equivalent to minimizing the other’s.

• Combinatorial game theoryNarrower topic: Combinatorial games form a structured class within the broader study of competitive games.

• Minimax theoremNarrower topic: The theorem applies to this class of games.

• Social dilemmaCompared with: Social dilemmas often permit mutual gains through cooperation, unlike strictly zero-sum conflict.

• Theory of Games and Economic BehaviorBroader topic: The book develops a mathematical solution theory for this sharply defined class.

• Normal-form gameRelated: It is a special payoff structure, not a competing representation.

• Rock paper scissorsNarrower topic: With draws worth zero, one player's win is the other's loss.

• Cooperative board gameCompared with: Its opposing payoffs differ from outcomes shared by a cooperative team.

• Game (game theory)Broader topic: It is a restrictive payoff structure, not a feature of every game.
