In this paper, a new method is proposed to compute the rolling Nash equilibrium of the time-invariant nonlinear two-person zero-sum differential games. The idea is to discretize the time to transform a differential game into a sequential…
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role that the continuous-time generalised Riccati equation plays within the context of singular linear-quadratic optimal control. This equation has been defined following the analogy with the…
We study a differential game where two players separately control their own dynamics, pay a running cost, and moreover pay an exit cost (quitting the game) when they leave a fixed domain. In particular, each player has its own domain and…
