Numerical approximation of Nash equilibria for a class of non-cooperative differential games

چکیده
In this paper we propose a numerical method to obtain an approximation of Nash equilibria for multi-player non-cooperative games with a special structure. We consider the infinite horizon problem in a case which leads to a system of Hamilton-Jacobi equations. The numerical method is based on the Dynamic Programming Principle for every equation and on a global fixed point iteration. We present the numerical solutions of some two-player games in one and two dimensions. The paper has an experimental nature, but some features and properties of the approximation scheme are discussed.

Improved Profitability and Competition in Two Level Supply Chain by Non-Cooperative Games
This article by modeling a non-cooperative dynamic game tries to improve profitability and competition. This paper has considered how the manufacturer interacts with multiple competitor distributors. Each distributor also determines the optimal distribution price and inventory replenishment policies to maximize their profits. The issue form a non-cooperative dynamic game. Distributors formulate...
متن کاملNon-cooperative Facility Location and Covering Games
We study a general class of non-cooperative games coming from combinatorial covering and facility location problems. A game for k players is based on an integer programming formulation. Each player wants to satisfy a subset of the constraints. Variables represent resources, which are available in costly integer units and must be bought. The cost can be shared arbitrarily between players. Once a...
متن کاملFeedback Equilibria for a General Class of Non-linear Differential Games with Application to Environmental and Resource Management
As it is well known in differential games, the open-loop Nash equilibrium (OLNE) concept with an infinite period of commitment is weakly time-consistent but not strongly time-consistent. On the other hand, the feedback Nash equilibrium (FBNE) is Markov perfect by construction and thus a more satisfactory solution concept, but solutions are usually very difficult to derive. Explicit solutions ca...
متن کاملPricing and Advertising Decisions in a Three-level Supply Chain with Nash, Stackelberg and Cooperative Games
Pricing and advertising are two important marketing strategies in the supply chain management which lead to customer demand’s increase and therefore higher profit for members of supply chains. This paper considers advertising, and pricing decisions simultaneously for a three-level supply chain with one supplier, one manufacturer and one retailer. The amount of market demand is influenced ...
متن کاملStochastic Learning of Equilibria in Games: The Ordinary Differential Equation Method
Our purpose is to discuss stochastic algorithms to learn equilibria in games, and their time of convergence. To do so, we consider a general class of stochastic algorithms that converge weakly (in the sense of weak convergence for stochastic processes) towards solutions of particular ordinary differential equations, corresponding to their mean-field approximations. Tuning parameters in these al...
