Optimal strategies of players in linear differential games.

A game involves a number of players, says N, a set of strategies for each player, and a pay of that quantitatively describes the outcome of each play of the game in terms of the amount that each player wins or loses. A common type of game is often called the pursuit-evasion game. Pursuit-evasion gam...
