👉 In the context of decision theory and game theory, an implicant is a set of outcomes that are not feasible for any player to achieve. Implicants can be either positive or negative, but they do not necessarily have to be mutually exclusive (i.e., no two players can both have a positive outcome). For example, if there are two implicants - one positive and one negative - then the player who has both cannot achieve them at the same time because they would result in a negative outcome.
