contents We provide a complete characterization for uniqueness of equilibria in unconstrained polymatrix games. We show that while uniqueness is natural for coordination and general polymatrix games, zero-sum games require that the dimension of the combined strategy space is even. Therefore, non-uniqueness is common in zero-sum polymatrix games. In addition, we study the impact of non-uniqueness on classical learning dynamics for multiagent systems and show that the classical methods still yield unique estimates even when there is not a unique equilibrium.
