主 题:zero-sum stochastic Markov games average payoffs optimality inequalities unbounded transition rates
摘 要:This paper concerns two-person zero-sum games for a class of average-payoff continuous-time Markov processes in Polish *** underlying processes are determined by transition rates that are allowed to be unbounded,and the payoff function may have neither upper nor lower *** use two optimality inequalities to replace the so-called optimality equation in the previous *** more general conditions,these optimality inequalities yield the existence of the value of the game and of a pair of optimal stationary *** some additional conditions we further establish the optimality equation ***,we use several examples to illustrate our results,and also to show the difference between the conditions in this paper and those in the *** particular,one of these examples shows that our approach is more general than all of the existing ones because it allows nonergodic Markov processes.
