The MaxMin value of stochastic games with imperfect monitoring

We study finite zero-sum stochastic games in which players do not observe the actions of their opponent. Rather, at each stage, each player observes a stochastic signal that may depend on the current state and on the pair of actions chosen by the players. We assume that each player observes the state and his/her own action. We prove that the uniform max–min value always exists. Moreover, the uniform max–min value is independent of the information structure of player 2. Symmetric results hold for the uniform min–max value.
