Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses a small volume to present the most basic results for deterministic two-person differential games. The presentation begins with optimization of a single function, followed by a basic theory for two-person games. For dynamic situations, the author first recalls control theory which is treated as single-person differential games. Then a systematic theory of two-person differential games is concisely presented, including evasion and pursuit problems, zero-sum problems and LQ differential games.The book is intended to be self-contained, assuming that the readers have basic knowledge of calculus, linear algebra, and elementary ordinary differential equations. The readership of the book could be junior/senior undergraduate and graduate students with majors related to applied mathematics, who are interested in differential games. Researchers in some other related areas, such as engineering, social science, etc. will also find the book useful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the major concentrated activities of the past decade in control theory has been the development of the so-called "HOO-optimal control theory," which addresses the issue of worst-case controller design for linear plants subject to unknown additive disturbances, including problems of disturbance attenuation, model matching, and tracking. The mathematical OO symbol "H " stands for the Hardy space of all complex-valued functions of a complex variable, which are analytic and bounded in the open right half complex plane. For a linear (continuous-time, time-invariant) plant, oo the H norm of the transfer matrix is the maximum of its largest singular value over all frequencies. OO Controller design problems where the H norm plays an important role were initially formulated by George Zames in the early 1980's, in the context of sensitivity reduction in linear plants, with the design problem posed as a mathematical optimization problem using an (HOO) operator norm. Thus formulated originally in the frequency domain, the main tools used during the early phases of research on this class of problems have been operator and approximation theory, spectral factorization, and (Youla) parametrization, leading initially to rather complicated (high-dimensional) OO optimal or near-optimal (under the H norm) controllers.

Download or read book Singular Differential Game Numerical Technique and Closed Loop Guidance and Control Strategies written by Kamran Forouhar and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this report a class of linear quadratic pursuit-evasion games with bounds on the pursuer's control has been defined. In this problem the pursuer's control appears linearly in the Hamiltonian and singular arcs may occur in the solution. A sufficient condition for the existence of a saddle point for this class of problems is derived. An indirect numerical technique has been proposed to generate a rapid and accurate solution to a class of problems with linear state equations in which singular arcs occur. Then, by linearization this technique is extended to solve a class of problems with non-linear state equations. By modifying this technique a second approach has been obtained that can solve a broader class of singular problems with linear state equations. The effect of the deviation of one player from the saddle point strategy on the performance index and the opponent's strategy has been studied for a two person zero-sum differential game with perfect information. An inverse system technique is used to determine the opponent's strategy by periodically measuring the state or the output of the system. Then, the proposed technique for singular problems is applied periodically to generate an approximate closed loop solution (which takes into consideration the deviation of the opponent from the saddle point trajectory) to achieve better performance than simply following the optimal open loop solution. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm, and, comparisons have been made between the results of the open loop and closed loop solutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of two-person, zero-sum differential games started at the be ginning of the 1960s with the works of R. Isaacs in the United States and L.S. Pontryagin and his school in the former Soviet Union. Isaacs based his work on the Dynamic Programming method. He analyzed many special cases of the partial differential equation now called Hamilton Jacobi-Isaacs-briefiy HJI-trying to solve them explicitly and synthe sizing optimal feedbacks from the solution. He began a study of singular surfaces that was continued mainly by J. Breakwell and P. Bernhard and led to the explicit solution of some low-dimensional but highly nontriv ial games; a recent survey of this theory can be found in the book by J. Lewin entitled Differential Games (Springer, 1994). Since the early stages of the theory, several authors worked on making the notion of value of a differential game precise and providing a rigorous derivation of the HJI equation, which does not have a classical solution in most cases; we mention here the works of W. Fleming, A. Friedman (see his book, Differential Games, Wiley, 1971), P.P. Varaiya, E. Roxin, R.J. Elliott and N.J. Kalton, N.N. Krasovskii, and A.I. Subbotin (see their book Po sitional Differential Games, Nauka, 1974, and Springer, 1988), and L.D. Berkovitz. A major breakthrough was the introduction in the 1980s of two new notions of generalized solution for Hamilton-Jacobi equations, namely, viscosity solutions, by M.G. Crandall and P.-L.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We consider a class of non-cooperative N-player non-zero-sum stochastic differential games with singular controls, in which each player can affect a linear stochastic differential equation in order to minimize a cost functional which is quadratic in the state and linear in the control. We call these games linear-quadratic-singular stochastic differential games. Under natural assumptions, we show the existence of open-loop Nash equilibria, which are characterized through a linear system of forward-backward stochastic differential equations. The proof is based on an approximation via a sequence of games in which players are restricted to play Lipschitz continuous strategies. We then discuss an application of these results to a model of capacity expansion in oligopoly markets.

This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A class of nonlinear, zero-sum differential games, exhibiting time-scale separation properties, can be analyzed by singular-perturbation techniques. The merits of such an analysis, leading to an approximate game solution, as well as the 'well-posedness' of the formulation, are discussed. This approach is shown to be attractive for investigating pursuit-evasion problems; the original multidimensional differential game is decomposed to a 'simple pursuit' (free-stream) game and two independent (boundary-layer) optimal-control problems. Using multiple time-scale boundary-layer models results in a pair of uniformly valid zero-order composite feedback strategies. The dependence of suboptimal strategies on relative geometry and own-state measurements is demonstrated by a three dimensional, constant-speed example. For game analysis with realistic vehicle dynamics, the technique of forced singular perturbations and a variable modeling approach is proposed. Accuracy of the analysis is evaluated by comparison with the numerical solution of a time-optimal, variable-speed 'game of two cars' in the horizontal plane. Sinar, J. and Farber, N.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general nonzero-sum differential game has N players, each controlling a different set of inputs to a single nonlinear dynamic system and each trying to minimize a different performance criterion. Several interesting new phenomena arise in these general games which are absent in the two best-known special cases (the optimal control problem and the two person zero-sum differential game). This paper considers some of the difficulties which arise in attempting to generalize ideas which are well-known in optimal control theory, such as the 'principle of optimality' and the relation between 'open-loop' and 'closed-loop' controls. Two types of 'solutions' are discussed: the 'Nash equilibrium' and the 'noninferior set.' Some simple multistage discrete (bimatrix) games are used to illustrate phenomena which also arise in the continuous formulation. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A general class of differential games, where the N players try to minimize different cost criteria by controlling inputs to a single dynamic system, is investigated as an extension of optimal control theory. Dropping the usual zero-sum assumption makes it possible to model a more realistic class of competitive situations where mutual interest is important. The nonzero-sum formulation has several interesting analytic and conceptual features not found in zero-sum differential games. It is no longer obvious what should be demanded of a 'solution, ' and three types of solution concepts are discussed: Nash equilibrium, minimax, and noninferior (or Pareto optimal) strategies. For one special case, the 'linear-quadratic' differential game, all of these solutions can be computed exactly by solving sets of coupled ordinary matrix differential equations. Some simple examples are solved, and series of more difficult but more realistic nonzero-sum differential game situations are presented (but not solved) for models of economic oligopoly, advertising policy, labor-management negotiations, and international trade.

Download or read book Adaptive Dynamic Programming for Control written by Huaguang Zhang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-14 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many methods of stable controller design for nonlinear systems. In seeking to go beyond the minimum requirement of stability, Adaptive Dynamic Programming in Discrete Time approaches the challenging topic of optimal control for nonlinear systems using the tools of adaptive dynamic programming (ADP). The range of systems treated is extensive; affine, switched, singularly perturbed and time-delay nonlinear systems are discussed as are the uses of neural networks and techniques of value and policy iteration. The text features three main aspects of ADP in which the methods proposed for stabilization and for tracking and games benefit from the incorporation of optimal control methods: • infinite-horizon control for which the difficulty of solving partial differential Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equations directly is overcome, and proof provided that the iterative value function updating sequence converges to the infimum of all the value functions obtained by admissible control law sequences; • finite-horizon control, implemented in discrete-time nonlinear systems showing the reader how to obtain suboptimal control solutions within a fixed number of control steps and with results more easily applied in real systems than those usually gained from infinite-horizon control; • nonlinear games for which a pair of mixed optimal policies are derived for solving games both when the saddle point does not exist, and, when it does, avoiding the existence conditions of the saddle point. Non-zero-sum games are studied in the context of a single network scheme in which policies are obtained guaranteeing system stability and minimizing the individual performance function yielding a Nash equilibrium. In order to make the coverage suitable for the student as well as for the expert reader, Adaptive Dynamic Programming in Discrete Time: • establishes the fundamental theory involved clearly with each chapter devoted to a clearly identifiable control paradigm; • demonstrates convergence proofs of the ADP algorithms to deepen understanding of the derivation of stability and convergence with the iterative computational methods used; and • shows how ADP methods can be put to use both in simulation and in real applications. This text will be of considerable interest to researchers interested in optimal control and its applications in operations research, applied mathematics computational intelligence and engineering. Graduate students working in control and operations research will also find the ideas presented here to be a source of powerful methods for furthering their study.
