A Probabilistic Representation for the Value of Zero-Sum Differential Games with Incomplete Information on Both Sides

چکیده
We prove that for a class of zero-sum differential games with incomplete information on both sides, the value admits a probabilistic representation as the value of a zero-sum stochastic differential game with complete information, where both players control a continuous martingale. A similar representation as a control problem over discontinuous martingales was known for games with incomplete information on one side (see Cardaliaguet-Rainer [9]), and our result is a continuous-time analog of the so called splitting-game introduced in Laraki [22] and Sorin [29] in order to analyze discrete-time models. It was proved by Cardaliaguet [5, 6] that the value of the games we consider is the unique solution of some Hamilton-Jacobi equation with convexity constraints. Our result provides therefore a new probabilistic representation for solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations with convexity constraints as values of stochastic differential games with unbounded control spaces and unbounded volatility.

The value of two-person zero-sum repeated games with incomplete information and uncertain duration
It is known that the value of a zero-sum infinitely repeated game with incomplete information on both sides need not exist [1]. It is proved that any number between the minmax and the maxmin of the zero-sum infinitely repeated game with incomplete information on both sides is the value of the long finitely repeated game where players’ information about the uncertain number of repetitions is asy...
متن کاملIncomplete Information Games with Transcendental Values
In a repeated zero-sum two-person game with incomplete information on both sides, the asymptotic value is defined as v = lim_oo v", where vn is the value of the game with n repetitions. It is shown here that v may be a transcendental number even for games in which all parameters defining the game are rational. This is in contrast to the situation in stochastic games where by the result of Bewle...
متن کاملA TRANSITION FROM TWO-PERSON ZERO-SUM GAMES TO COOPERATIVE GAMES WITH FUZZY PAYOFFS
In this paper, we deal with games with fuzzy payoffs. We proved that players who are playing a zero-sum game with fuzzy payoffs against Nature are able to increase their joint payoff, and hence their individual payoffs by cooperating. It is shown that, a cooperative game with the fuzzy characteristic function can be constructed via the optimal game values of the zero-sum games with fuzzy payoff...
متن کاملThe Value of Markov Chain Games with Incomplete Information on Both Sides
We consider zero-sum repeated games with incomplete information on both sides, where the states privately observed by each player follow independent Markov chains. It generalizes the model, introduced by Aumann and Maschler in the sixties and solved by Mertens and Zamir in the seventies, where the private states of the players were fixed. It also includes the model introduced in Renault [20], o...
متن کاملApproximation and representation of the value for some differential games with imperfect information
We consider differential games with imperfect information. For special games with dynamics independent of the state of the system and linear payoffs, we give a representation formula for the value similar to the value of repeated games with lack of information on both sides. For general games, this representation formula does not hold and we introduce an approximation of the value : we build a ...
