In this paper, we discuss nonzero-sum linear-quadratic differential games. For this kind of games, the Nash equilibria for different kinds of information structures were first studied by Starr and Ho. Most of the literature on the topic of nonzero-sum linear-quadratic differential games is concerned with games of fixed, finite duration; i.e., games are studied over a finite time horizon t
f. In this paper, we study the behavior of feedback Nash equilibria for t
f.In the case of memoryless perfect-state information, we study the so-called feedback Nash equilibrium. Contrary to the open-loop case, we note that the coupled Riccati equations for the feedback Nash equilibrium are inherently nonlinear. Therefore, we limit the dynamic analysis to the scalar case. For the special case that all parameters are scalar, a detailed dynamical analysis is given for the quadratic system of coupled Riccati equations. We show that the asymptotic behavior of the solutions of the Riccati equations depends strongly on the specified terminal values. Finally, we show that, although the feedback Nash equilibrium over any fixed finite horizon is generically unique, there can exist several different feedback Nash equilibria in stationary strategies for the infinite-horizon problem, even when we restrict our attention to Nash equilibria that are stable in the dynamical sense. 相似文献

In this paper we review a number of algorithms to compute Nash equilibria in deterministic linear quadratic differential games.
We will review the open-loop and feedback information case. In both cases we address both the finite and the infinite-planning
horizon. 相似文献

It is well known that, in general, Nash equilibria in open-loop strategies do not coincide with those in closed-loop strategies. This note identifies a class of differential games in which the Nash equilibrium in closed-loop strategies is degenerate, in the sense that it depends on time only. Consequently, the closed-loop equilibrium is also an equilibrium in open-loop strategies.The helpful comments of Professors Y. C. Ho, G. Leitmann, H. Y. Wan, Jr., and an anonymous referee are gratefully acknowledged. 相似文献

The Nash equilibrium in pure strategies represents an important solution concept in nonzero sum matrix games. Existence of
Nash equilibria in games with known and with randomly selected payoff entries have been studied extensively. In many real
games, however, a player may know his own payoff entries but not the payoff entries of the other player. In this paper, we
consider nonzero sum matrix games where the payoff entries of one player are known, but the payoff entries of the other player
are assumed to be randomly selected. We are interested in determining the probabilities of existence of pure Nash equilibria
in such games. We characterize these probabilities by first determining the finite space of ordinal matrix games that corresponds
to the infinite space of matrix games with random entries for only one player. We then partition this space into mutually
exclusive spaces that correspond to games with no Nash equilibria and with r Nash equilibria. In order to effectively compute the sizes of these spaces, we introduce the concept of top-rated preferences
minimal ordinal games. We then present a theorem which provides a mechanism for computing the number of games in each of these
mutually exclusive spaces, which then can be used to determine the probabilities. Finally, we summarize the results by deriving
the probabilities of existence of unique, nonunique, and no Nash equilibria, and we present an illustrative example. 相似文献

The aim of the paper is to explore strategic reasoning in strategic games of two players with an uncountably infinite space of strategies the payoff of which is given by McNaughton functions—functions on the unit interval which are piecewise linear with integer coefficients. McNaughton functions are of a special interest for approximate reasoning as they correspond to formulas of infinitely valued Lukasiewicz logic. The paper is focused on existence and structure of Nash equilibria and algorithms for their computation. Although the existence of mixed strategy equilibria follows from a general theorem (Glicksberg, 1952) [5], nothing is known about their structure neither the theorem provides any method for computing them. The central problem of the article is to characterize the class of strategic games with McNaughton payoffs which have a finitely supported Nash equilibrium. We give a sufficient condition for finite equilibria and we propose an algorithm for recovering the corresponding equilibrium strategies. Our result easily generalizes to n-player strategic games which don't need to be strictly competitive with a payoff functions represented by piecewise linear functions with real coefficients. Our conjecture is that every game with McNaughton payoff allows for finitely supported equilibrium strategies, however we leave proving/disproving of this conjecture for future investigations. 相似文献

In this paper we study an extended version of the model described in Gradus (J. Econ. 81:1092–1109, 1989) in order to determine the optimal taxation policy of a government and its effects on the stock of capital goods growth as
a result of the activity developed by firms. It is shown that, by introducing a wealth tax, there exists an optimal wealth
tax rate for which the open-loop/feedback Nash/Stackelberg equilibria coincide, maximizing the payments for both agents (government
and firms), so that the open-loop Stackelberg equilibrium becomes both time consistent and subgame perfect.

In this paper, we consider infinite-horizon stochastic differential games with an autonomous structure and steady branching payoffs. While the introduction of additional stochastic elements via branching payoffs offers a fruitful alternative to modeling game situations under uncertainty, the solution to such a problem is not known. A theorem on the characterization of a Nash equilibrium solution for this kind of games is presented. An application in renewable resource extraction is provided to illustrate the solution mechanism. 相似文献

Weak and Strong Time Consistency in a Differential Oligopoly Game with Capital Accumulation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We illustrate a differential oligopoly game with capital accumulation where the accumulation dynamics of productive capacity
is modelled à la Ramsey. The model is solved under the open-loop information structure, to show that it admits an open-loop
Nash equilibrium which is indeed a degenerate feedback one and therefore strongly time consistent, even if, by construction,
the problem under consideration is not a linear state game.

This note deals with the following problem inN-player Nash open-loop differential games: Which conditions on the Hamiltonians will simplify the verification of the sufficient conditions? In the class of games with Hamiltonians linear in the state, and where the state is separated from the control of playeri in the Hamiltonian of this player, the first-order and second-order conditions for an extremum of the Hamiltonian of playeri also constitute a set of sufficient conditions. 相似文献

This note provides a lemma on differential games which possess a feedback Nash equilibrium (FNE). In particular, it shows that (i) a class of games with a degenerate FNE can be constructucted from every game which has a nondegenerate FNE and (ii) a class of games with a nondegenerate FNE can be constructed from every game which has a degenerate FNE.The author would like to thank an anonymous referee for invaluable comments and suggestions. 相似文献

In this paper, sufficient conditions are given, which are less restrictivethan those required by the Arrow–Debreu–Nash theorem, on theexistence of a Nash equilibrium of an n-player game {1, . . . , Yn,f1, . . . , fn} in normal form with a nonempty closedconvex constraint C on the set Y=i Yi of multistrategies. Theith player has to minimize the function fi with respect to the ithvariable. We consider two cases.In the first case, Y is a real Hilbert space and the loss function class isquadratic. In this case, the existence of a Nash equilibrium is guaranteedas a simple consequence of the projection theorem for Hilbert spaces. In thesecond case, Y is a Euclidean space, the loss functions are continuous, andfi is convex with respect to the ith variable. In this case, the techniqueis quite particular, because the constrained game is approximated with asequence of free games, each with a Nash equilibrium in an appropriatecompact space X. Since X is compact, there exists a subsequence of theseNash equilibrium points which is convergent in the norm. If thelimit point is in C and if the order of convergence is greater than one,then this is a Nash equilibrium of the constrained game. 相似文献

The present paper considers a dynamic nonzero-sum game between drug dealers and the authorities. Although the game is neither linear-quadratic nor degenerate, in the sense that the closed-loop equilibria coincide with the open-loop equilibria, we are able to calculate explicitly a stationary feedback Nash equilibrium of that game. In a numerical example, we determine the optimal allocation of governmental efforts between treatment and law enforcement minimizing the total discounted cost stream in the equilibrium. Moreover, we provide sensitivity analyses with respect to the efficiency parameters of both competitors. Our results show that a farsighted authority should attack the drug problem from the demand side and put much effort in treatment measures and the improvement of the efficiency of the treatment.This research was supported by the Austrian Science Foundation under Contract P9112-SOZ.

In this paper we consider the Nash equilibrium problem for infinite player games with vector payoffs in a topological vector
space setting. By employing new concepts of relative (pseudo)monotonicity, we establish several existence results of solutions
for usual and normalized vector equilibria. The results strengthen existence results for vector equilibrium problems, which
were based on classical pseudomonotonicity concepts. They also extend previous results for vector variational inequalities
and finite player games under relative (pseudo)monotonicity. 相似文献

Leitmann (Ref. 1) introduced coordinate transformations to derive global optima of a class of dynamic optimization problems. We present applications of this method to derive open-loop Nash equilibria for finite-time horizon differential games. The method of coordinate transformations is especially useful in cases where the original game does not satisfy the global curvature conditions normally imposed in sufficient optimality conditions. 相似文献

In this paper the problem ofN-person infinite-dimensional stochastic differential games governed by semilinear stochastic evolution control systems is discussed. First the minimax principle which is the necessary condition for the existence of open-loop Nash equilibrium is proved. Then the necessary and sufficient conditions of open-loop and closed-loop Nash equilibrium for linear quadratic infinite-dimensional stochastic differential games are derived. 相似文献

On Coincidence of Feedback Nash Equilibria and Stackelberg Equilibria in Economic Applications of Differential Games 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The scope of the applicability of the feedback Stackelberg equilibrium concept in differential games is investigated. First,
conditions for obtaining the coincidence between the stationary feedback Nash equilibrium and the stationary feedback Stackelberg
equilibrium are given in terms of the instantaneous payoff functions of the players and the state equations of the game. Second,
a class of differential games representing the underlying structure of a good number of economic applications of differential
games is defined; for this class of differential games, it is shown that the stationary feedback Stackelberg equilibrium coincides
with the stationary feedback Nash equilibrium. The conclusion is that the feedback Stackelberg solution is generally not useful
to investigate leadership in the framework of a differential game, at least for a good number of economic applications

A class of stochastic games with additive reward and transition structure is studied. For zero-sum games under some ergodicity assumptions 1-equilibria are shown to exist. They correspond to so-called sensitive optimal policies in dynamic programming. For a class of nonzero-sum stochastic games with nonatomic transitions nonrandomized Nash equilibrium points with respect to the average payoff criterion are also obtained. Included examples show that the results of this paper can not be extented to more general payoff or transition structure. 相似文献
