Abstract

So far we have neglected the possibility that randomized plans (‘mixed strategies’) may yield a larger expected total reward than G. In this section we give a partial answer to this problem along the lines of Blackwell (65), Strauch (66), Hinderer (67). Since we want to defer measure-theoretic considerations to chapter II, we shall make for this section the general assumption that the action space A is countable.
