Abstract
A generalized model for a two person zero sum matrix game with fuzzy goals and fuzzy payoffs via fuzzy relation approach is introduced, and it is shown to be equivalent to two semi-infinite optimization problems. Further, in certain special cases, it is observed that the two semi-infinite optimization problems reduce to (finite) linear programming problems which are dual to each other either in the fuzzy sense or in the crisp sense.
