Abstract
This chapter presents in a first section the intuitional relationships between games and fuzziness; then, in a second section, we propose some arguments to justify and illustrate the two main concepts of fuzzy information and fuzzy coalition, on which cooperative and noncooperative analyses are founded; next, in the two following sections, we develop the noncooperative framework essentially from Butnariu’s contributions, gathering the literature and presenting the results, and finally the cooperative model essentially from Aubin’s works, Hüsseinov’s and Billot’s.
