Nonzero-sum differential game of backward doubly stochastic systems with delay and applications (Q829009)

The authors consider a nonzero-sum differential game of backward doubly stochastic system with delay, in which the state dynamics follows a delayed backward doubly stochastic differential equation (SDE). They prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions to delayed backward doubly SDE and anticipated forward doubly SDE. They establish a necessary condition in the form of maximum principle with Pontryagin's type for open-loop Nash equilibrium point of this type of game, and then give a verification theorem which is a sufficient condition for Nash equilibrium point. The theoretical results are applied to study a nonzero-sum differential game of linear-quadratic backward doubly stochastic system with delay.
