An Update on Continuous-Time Stochastic Games of Fixed Duration

Abstract

This paper shows that continuous-time stochastic games of fixed duration need not possess equilibria in Markov strategies. The example requires payoffs and transitions to depend on time in a continuous but irregular (almost nowhere almost differentiable) way. This example offers a correction to the erroneous construction presented previously in Levy (Dyn Games Appl 3(2):279–312, 2013. https://doi.org/10.1007/s13235-012-0067-2).
