Many differential equations with physical backgrounds are described as gradient systems, which are evolution equations driven by the gradient of some functionals, and such problems have energy conservation or dissipation properties. For…

We study a Stackelberg variant of the classical discrete-time Dynkin game, in which Player 1 (the leader) commits to a stopping strategy first and Player 2 (the follower) responds optimally. This leader-follower structure induces an optimal…

Solutions to pursuit-evasion and surveillance-evasion differential games are typically computed and expressed using open-loop representations, with the synthesis of feedback strategies significantly less common. We propose a numerical…

We give a new algorithm for Unique Games which is based on purely {\em spectral} techniques, in contrast to previous work in the area, which relies heavily on semidefinite programming (SDP). Given a highly satisfiable instance of Unique…

We introduce a zero-sum game problem of mean-field type as an extension of the classical zero-sum Dynkin game problem to the case where the payoff processes might depend on the value of the game and its probability law. We establish…

We study a stochastic game where one player tries to find a strategy such that the state process reaches a target of controlled-loss-type, no matter which action is chosen by the other player. We provide, in a general setup, a relaxed…
