What is trembling hand perfect equilibrium?
Updated May 16, 2026
Short answer
A trembling hand perfect equilibrium accounts for small probability mistakes in player actions.
Deep explanation
It refines Nash equilibrium by assuming players may make rare mistakes ('trembles'). A strategy is stable if it remains optimal under these perturbations. It eliminates non-credible equilibria.
