If ''f'' is twice continuously differentiable, then supermodularity is equivalent to the condition<ref>The equivalence between the definition of supermodularity and its calculus formulation is sometimes called ''Topkis' Characterization Theorem''. See Paul Milgrom and John Roberts (1990), 'Rationalizability, Learning, and Equilibrium in Games with Strategic Complementarities', ''Econometrica'' 58 (6), page 1261.</ref>
 
:<math> \frac{\partial ^2 f}{\partial z_i\, \partial z_j} \geq 0 \mbox{ for all } i \neq j.</math>
 
==Supermodularity in economics and game theory==
The concept of supermodularity is used in the social sciences to analyze how one [[Agent (economics)|agent's]] decision affects the incentives of others.
 
Consider a [[symmetric game]] with a smooth payoff function <math>\,f\,</math> defined over actions <math>\,z_i\,</math> of two or more players <math>i \in {1,2,\dots,N}</math>. Suppose the action space is continuous; for simplicity, suppose each action is chosen from an interval: <math>z_i \in [a,b]</math>. In this context, supermodularity of <math>\,f\,</math> implies that an increase in player <math>\,i\,</math>'s choice <math>\,z_i\,</math> increases the marginal payoff <math>df/dz_j</math> of action <math>\,z_j\,</math> for all other players <math>\,j\,</math>. That is, if any player <math>\,i\,</math> chooses a higher <math>\,z_i\,</math>, all other players <math>\,j\,</math> have an incentive to raise their choices <math>\,z_j\,</math> too. Following the terminology of Bulow, Geanakoplos, and Klemperer (1985), economists call this situation [[strategic complements|strategic complementarity]], because players' strategies are complements to each other.<ref>Jeremy I. Bulow, John D. Geanakoplos, and Paul D. Klemperer (1985), 'Multimarket oligopoly: strategic substitutes and strategic complements'. ''Journal of Political Economy'' 93, pp. 488&ndash;511.</ref> This is the basic property underlying examples of [[General equilibrium#Uniqueness|multiple equilibria]] in [[coordination game]]s.<ref>Russell Cooper  and Andrew John (1988), 'Coordinating coordination failures in Keynesian models.' ''Quarterly Journal of Economics'' 103 (3), pp. 441&ndash;63.</ref>
 
The opposite case of submodularity of <math>\,f\,</math> corresponds to the situation of [[strategic complements|strategic substitutability]]. An increase in <math>\,z_i\,</math> lowers the marginal payoff to all other player's choices <math>\,z_j\,</math>, so strategies are substitutes. That is, if <math>\,i\,</math> chooses a higher <math>\,z_i\,</math>, other players have an incentive to pick a ''lower'' <math>\,z_j\,</math>.
 
For example, Bulow et al. consider the interactions of many [[Imperfect competition|imperfectly competitive]] firms. When an increase in output by one firm raises the marginal revenues of the other firms, production decisions are strategic complements. When an increase in output by one firm lowers the marginal revenues of the other firms, production decisions are strategic substitutes.
 
A standard reference on the subject is by Topkis.<ref>Donald M. Topkis (1998), Supermodularity and Complementarity, Princeton University Press.</ref>
 
==Supermodular functions of subsets==
Supermodularity and submodularity are also defined for functions defined over subsets of a larger set. Intuitively, a submodular function over the subsets demonstrates "diminishing returns". There are specialized techniques for optimizing submodular functions.
 
Let ''S'' be a finite set. A function <math>f\colon 2^S \to R</math> is submodular if for any <math>A \subset B \subset S</math> and <math>x \in S \setminus B</math>, <math>f(A \cup \{x\})-f(A) \geq f(B \cup \{x\})-f(B)</math>.  For supermodularity, the inequality is reversed.
 
A simple illustrative example motivates this definition of submodular. Let S be a set of different foods, <math>M \subset  S</math> a meal, and <math>f(M)</math> the "goodness" of that meal. Then A above is one meal, and B is A but with even more options. Let x be ice cream.  Adding ice cream to a meal is always good, but it is best if there is not already a dessert.  If A and B either both have a dessert or both do not, then adding ice cream to them is comparably good. But if A does not have dessert and B does, then the effect of adding ice cream is more pronounced in A.
 
The definition of submodularity can equivalently be formulated as
:<math> f(A)+f(B) \geq f(A \cap B) + f(A \cup B) </math>
for all subsets ''A'' and ''B'' of ''S''.
