Cooperative and Non-Cooperative Differential Games

  • Chapter
Multicriteria Decision Making

Part of the book series: International Centre for Mechanical Sciences ((CISM,volume 211))

Abstract

Many player differential games are discussed for a cooperative mood of play in the sense of Pareto, and for a non-cooperative one, in the sense of Nash. In the cooperative case, the results are equally applicable to the situation of a single decision-maker with multi-criteria. Necessary as well as sufficient conditions for optimal play are considered. Some examples are presented to illustrate the theory.
