Abstract:

In this paper we discuss some key concepts and methods relevant to multi-person decision-making and optimization in deterministic and stochastic dynamic systems. Specifically, we consider systems defined in discrete-time, and treat the team, Nash and Stackelberg leader-follower solution concepts under different information structures. We provide an up-to-date survey of the literature on these topics, and also present some new results. Author
