This paper studies algorithms for the solution of mixed symmetric linear complementarity problems. The goal is to compute fast and approximate solutions of medium to large sized problems, such as those arising in computer game simulations and American options pricing. The paper proposes an improvement of a method described by Kocvara and Zowe (Numer Math 68:95–106, 1994) that combines projected Gauss–Seidel iterations with subspace minimization steps. The proposed algorithm employs a recursive subspace minimization designed to handle severely ill-conditioned problems. Numerical tests indicate that the approach is more efficient than interior-point and gradient projection methods on some physical simulation problems that arise in computer game scenarios.

A sensitivity based approach is presented to determine Nash solution(s) in multiobjective problems modeled as a non-cooperative game. The proposed approach provides an approximation to the rational reaction set (RRS) for each player. An intersection of these sets yields the Nash solution for the game. An alternate approach for generating the RRS based on design of experiments (DOE) combined with response surface methodology (RSM) is also explored. The two approaches for generating the RRS are compared on three example problems to find Nash and Stackelberg solutions. For the examples presented, it is seen that the proposed sensitivity based approach (i) requires less computational effort than a RSM-DOE approach, (ii) is less prone to numerical errors than the RSM-DOE approach, (iii) has the ability to find multiple Nash solutions when the Nash solution is not a singleton, (iv) is able to approximate nonlinear RRS, and (v) on one example problem, found a Nash solution better than the one reported in the literature.  相似文献

In this paper a novel approach is presented for an analytic approximate solution of nonlinear differential equations with boundary conditions. By converting the nonlinear problem into an initial value form, a shooting-like procedure is introduced based on the powerful homotopy analysis technique. The proposed methodology is shown to work adequately for solving single or multiple solutions of some sample nonlinear boundary value problems.  相似文献

A backward error for inverse singular value problems with respect to an approximate solution is defined, and an explicit expression for the backward error is derived by extending the approach described in [J.G. Sun, Backward errors for the inverse eigenvalue problem, Numer. Math. 82 (1999) 339-349]. The expression may be useful for testing the stability of practical algorithms.  相似文献

It always takes time for people to digest information and make judgments. The decision maker's preference is not always clear and stable when decision analysis and decision making are performed. In this paper, we introduce a generalized preference structure to cope with indefinite preferences. We describe its general properties, its implication on value function representation, its solution concepts, and methods for obtaining the solutions.This research has been partially supported by NSF Grant No. IST-84-18863.

This article presents a simulation-based methodology for finding optimal investment strategy for long-term financial planning. The problem becomes intractable due to its size or the properties of the utility function of the investors. One approach is to make simplifying assumptions regarding the states of the world and/or utility functions in order to obtain a solution. These simplifications lead to the true solution of an approximate problem. Our approach is to find a good approximate solution to the true problem. We approximate the optimal decision in each period with a low dimensional parameterization, thus reformulating the problem as a non-linear, simulation-based optimization in the parameter space. The dimension of the reformulated optimization problem becomes linear in the number of periods. The approach is extendable to other problems where similar solution characteristics are known.  相似文献

A dynamical model of a non-antagonistic evolutionary game for two coalitions is considered. The model features an infinite time span and discounted payoff functionals. A solution is presented using differential game theory. The solution is based on the construction of a value function for auxiliary antagonistic differential games and uses an approximate grid scheme from the theory of generalized solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equations. Together with the value functions the optimal guaranteeing procedures for control on the grid are computed and the Nash dynamic equilibrium is constructed. The behaviour of trajectories generated by the guaranteeing controls is investigated. Examples are given.  相似文献

In this paper, we address the problem of the existence of superconvergence points of approximate solutions, obtained from the Generalized Finite Element Method (GFEM), of a Neumann elliptic boundary value problem. GFEM is a Galerkin method that uses non-polynomial shape functions, and was developed in (Babuška et al. in SIAM J Numer Anal 31, 945–981, 1994; Babuška et al. in Int J Numer Meth Eng 40, 727–758, 1997; Melenk and Babuška in Comput Methods Appl Mech Eng 139, 289–314, 1996). In particular, we show that the superconvergence points for the gradient of the approximate solution are the zeros of a system of non-linear equations; this system does not depend on the solution of the boundary value problem. For approximate solutions with second derivatives, we have also characterized the superconvergence points of the second derivatives of the approximate solution as the roots of a system of non-linear equations. We note that smooth generalized finite element approximation is easy to construct. I. Babuška’s research was partially supported by NSF Grant # DMS-0341982 and ONR Grant # N00014-99-1-0724. U.

In this article, various types of approximate solutions for vector quasi-variational problems in Banach spaces are introduced. Motivated by [M.B. Lignola, J. Morgan, On convergence results for weak efficiency in vector optimization problems with equilibrium constraints, J. Optim. Theor. Appl. 133 (2007), pp. 117–121] and in line with the results obtained in optimization, game theory and scalar variational inequalities, our aim is to investigate lower convergence properties (in the sense of Painlevé–Kuratowski) for such approximate solution sets in the presence of perturbations on the data. Sufficient conditions are obtained for the lower convergence of ‘strict approximate’ solution sets but counterexamples show that, in general, the other types of solutions do not lower converge. Moreover, we prove that any exact solution to the limit problem can be obtained as the limit of a sequence of approximate solutions to the perturbed problems.  相似文献

In this paper, we review briefly some methods for minimizing a functionF(x), which proceed by follwoing the solution curve of a system of ordinary differential equations. Such methods have often been thought to be unacceptably expensive; but we show, by means of extensive numerical tests, using a variety of algorithms, that the ODE approach can in fact be implemented in such a way as to be more than competitive with currently available conventional techniques.This work was supported by a SERC research studentship for the first author.

This paper is concerned with the numerical integration of ordinary differential equations of the orderx. Sufficient conditions and also necessary ones are given for the s-th difference quotient of the approximate solution to approach thes-th derivative of the exact solution fors >0. This requires a more subtle examination of the multiplicities of the characteristic roots of modulus 1.The work reported in this paper was started when the author was a member of the Institut für Praktische Mathematik (Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c.A.

This paper presents a new approximate method of Abel differential equation. By using the shifted Chebyshev expansion of the unknown function, Abel differential equation is approximately transformed to a system of nonlinear equations for the unknown coefficients. A desired solution can be determined by solving the resulting nonlinear system. This method gives a simple and closed form of approximate solution of Abel differential equation. The solution is calculated in the form of a series with easily computable components. The numerical results show the effectiveness of the method for this type of equation. Comparing the methodology with some known techniques shows that the present approach is relatively easy and highly accurate.  相似文献

In this paper, we study solutions of strict noncooperative games that are played just once. The players are not allowed to communicate with each other. The main ingredient of our theory is the concept of rationalizing a set of strategies for each player of a game. We state an axiom based on this concept that every solution of a noncooperative game is required to satisfy. Strong Nash solvability is shown to be a sufficient condition for the rationalizing set to exist, but it is not necessary. Also, Nash solvability is neither necessary nor sufficient for the existence of the rationalizing set of a game. For a game with no solution (in our sense), a player is assumed to recourse to a standard of behavior. Some standards of behavior are examined and discussed.This work was sponsored by the United States Army under Contract No. DAAG29-75-C-0024 and by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. MCS-75-17385-A01.

The purpose of this paper is to develop an effective methodology for solving constrained matrix games with payoffs of trapezoidal fuzzy numbers (TrFNs), which are a type of two-person non-cooperative games with payoffs expressed by TrFNs and players’ strategies being constrained. In this methodology, it is proven that any Alfa-constrained matrix game has an interval-type value and hereby any constrained matrix game with payoffs of TrFNs has a TrFN-type value. The auxiliary linear programming models are derived to compute the interval-type value of any Alfa-constrained matrix game and players’ optimal strategies. Thereby the TrFN-type value of any constrained matrix game with payoffs of TrFNs can be directly obtained through solving the derived four linear programming models with data taken from only 1-cut and 0-cut of TrFN-type payoffs. Validity and applicability of the models and method proposed in this paper are demonstrated with a numerical example of the market share game problem.  相似文献

In [8, 6] a numerical method for the construction of optimally stabilizing feedback laws was proposed. The method is based on a set oriented discretization of phase space in combination with graph theoretic algorithms for the computation of shortest paths in directed weighted graphs. The resulting approximate optimal value function is piecewise constant, yielding an approximate optimal feedback which might not be robust with respect to perturbations of the system. In this contribution we extend the approach to the case of perturbed control systems. Based on the concept of a multivalued game we show how to derive a directed weighted hypergraph from the original system and generalize the corresponding shortest path algorithm. The resulting optimal value function yields a robustly stabilizing approximate optimal feedback law. This note is an abbreviated version of [5]. For the proofs of the statements here we refer to the full paper. (© 2005 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)  相似文献

Truncated singular value decomposition is a popular solution method for linear discrete ill-posed problems. However, since the singular value decomposition of the matrix is independent of the right-hand side, there are linear discrete ill-posed problems for which this method fails to yield an accurate approximate solution. This paper describes a new approach to incorporating knowledge about properties of the desired solution into the solution process through an initial projection of the linear discrete ill-posed problem. The projected problem is solved by truncated singular value decomposition. Computed examples illustrate that suitably chosen projections can enhance the accuracy of the computed solution.  相似文献

Assignment problems where both sets of agents that have to be matched are countably infinite, the so-called infinite assignment problems, are studied as well as the related cooperative assignment games. Further, several solution concepts for these assignment games are studied. The first one is the utopia payoff for games with an infinite value. In this solution each player receives the maximal amount he can think of with respect to the underlying assignment problem. This solution is contained in the core of the game. Second, we study two solutions for assignment games with a finite value. Our main result is the existence of core-elements of these games, although they are hard to calculate. Therefore another solution, the f-strong ε-core is studied. This particular solution takes into account that due to organisational limitations it seems reasonable that only finite groups of agents will eventually protest against unfair proposals of profit distributions. The f-strong ε-core is shown to be nonempty.

This contribution is located in the common area of operational research and economics, with a close relation and joint future potential with optimization: game theory. We focus on collaborative game theory under uncertainty. This study is on a new class of cooperative games where the set of players is finite and the coalition values are interval grey numbers. An interesting solution concept, the grey Shapley value, is introduced and characterized with the properties of additivity, efficiency, symmetry and dummy player, which are straightforward generalizations of the corresponding properties in the classical cooperative game theory. The paper ends with a conclusion and an outlook to future studies.  相似文献

Differential games (DG's) are investigated from a stability point of view. Several resemblances between the theory of optimal control and that of structural stability suggest a differential game approach in which the operators have conflicting interests regarding the stability of the system only. This qualitative approach adds several interesting new features. The solution of a differential game is defined to be the equilibrium position of a dynamical system in the framework of a given stability theory: this is the differential hypergame (DHG). Three types of DHG are discussed: abstract structural DHG, Liapunov DHG, and Popov DHG. The first makes the connection between DG and the catastrophe theory of Thom; the second makes the connection between the value function approach and Liapunov theory; and the third provides invariant properties for DG's. To illustrate the fact that the theory sketched here may find interesting applications, the up-to-date problem of the world economy is outlined.This research was supported by the National Research Council of Canada.  相似文献

This paper provides a quantitative and comparative economic and risk approach to strategic quality control in a supply chain, consisting of one supplier and one producer, using a random payoff game. Such a game is first solved in a risk-neutral framework by assuming that both parties are competing with each other. We show in this case that there may be an interior solution to the inspection game. A similar analysis under a collaborative framework is shown to be trivial and not practical, with a solution to the inspection game being an ‘all or nothing’ solution to one or both the parties involved. For these reasons, the sampling random payoff game is transformed into a Neyman–Pearson risk constraints game, where the parties minimize the expected costs subject to a set of Neyman–Pearson risk (type I and type II) constraints. In this case, the number of potential equilibria can be large. A number of such solutions are developed and a practical (convex) approach is suggested by providing an interior (partial sampling) solution for the collaborative case. Numerical examples are developed to demonstrate the procedure used. Thus, unlike theoretical approaches to the solution of strategic quality control random payoff games, the approach we construct is both practical and consistent with the statistical risk Neyman–Pearson approach.  相似文献
