Two-person second-order games, part 2: restructuring operations to reach a win-win profile

In Part 1 of the paper, using habitual domains theory and finite Markov chain theory, we have introduced a new model for describing the evolution of the states of mind of players over time, the two-person second-order game. The concepts of focal mind profile as well as the solution concept of win-wi...
