摘要
A noncooperative stochastic differential game (SDG) is said to be a potential game if there exists an associated stochastic control problem whose optimal solutions are Nash equilibria for the given game. In this paper, we give sufficient conditions for an SDG to be a potential game. To this end, our main tools are suitable versions of the stochastic maximum principle. Our results are illustrated with several examples, including team games and separable games, which have Pareto-optimal Nash equilibria.
