This paper considers a zero-sum constrained stochastic game. The control objective of each participant is to optimize his limiting average payo . In this case, the behavior of each player is modelled with a ΓΏnite ergodic controlled Markov chain. The saddle point is shown to be the stationary strateg
It is well-known that saddle point criteria is a sufficient optimality condition for constrained optimization problems. Convexity is a basic requirement for the development of duality theory and saddle point optimality. In this paper we show that, under some mild conditions, the local convexity of L
