Differential Games: A Mathematical Theory with Applications to Warfare and Pursuit, Control and Optimization

One of the definitive works in game theory, this fascinating volume offers an original look at methods of obtaining solutions for conflict situations. Combining the principles of game theory, the calculus of variations, and control theory, the author considers and solves an amazing array of problems: military, pursuit and evasion, games of firing and maneuver, athletic contests, and many other problems of conflict.Beginning with general definitions and the basic mathematics behind different...
