This paper deals with bi-matrix games with random payoffs. Using probability tools, we propose a solution based on the concept of Z-equilibrium. Then, we give sufficient conditions of its existence. Further, the problem of computation of this solution is transformed into the determination of Pareto optimal solutions of a deterministic bi-criteria minimization problem. Finally, we provide illustrative numerical examples.
Keywords: Bi-matrix game, chance constrained game, Z-equilibrium, normal random variable, Cauchy random variable
