 Solution

Let $U={\sum }_i{u}_i$. The candidate strategies areAt this pair, A's partial derivatives $2u_i{y}_i/(x_i+y_i{)}^2$ are independent of $i$, as are the negatives of B's partial derivatives. Since $F$ is concave in $x$ for fixed $y$ and convex in $y$ for fixed $x$, the Lagrange sufficiency theorem provesfor all feasible $x,y$. Hence $(x^{\ast },y^{\ast })$ is a saddle point and gives the optimal strategies in this zero-sum game. Its game value is
