Subgame perfect equilibrium is a refinement of Nash equilibrium used in dynamic games, where players make decisions at different stages. It requires that players' strategies constitute a Nash equilibrium in every subgame of the original game, ensuring that players' strategies are optimal even when the game reaches any point in the future. This concept helps analyze decision-making processes in extensive form games and supports the evaluation of credible threats and promises in strategic interactions.
