A dominant strategy equilibrium is a specific type of Nash equilibrium. It occurs when all players in the game are playing their dominant strategies.
Conditions: All players must have and play a dominant strategy for it to be a dominant strategy equilibrium.; A Nash equilibrium only requires mutual best responses, which may or may not be dominant strategies.

A dominant strategy is an action that provides a higher payoff than any other available action, no matter what strategy the other player chooses. It is the best response to all possible actions of the opponent.
Conditions: Must be the best response to all possible actions of the opponent.; Applies to a specific player in the game.

To find a Nash equilibrium, identify the best response for each player to every possible action of their opponent. A Nash equilibrium occurs in the cell where both players' payoffs are best responses to each other, often marked by two underlines in the same cell.
Conditions: Requires identifying best responses for all players.; Applies to simultaneous move games represented by a payoff matrix.
