misc
A map $\Delta^n\to \mathbb{R}^m$ which is not affine-linear but preserves straight line segments. These arise when writing the payoff vector of a repeated game as a function of one player’s randomized action at a given history. All other strategy components must be fixed. I first saw this interesting property for 2x2 games in McAvoy and Nowak 2019. It has a neat proof for discounted Markov decision processes, with vector-valued payoffs based on the current state.
