This paper deals with zero-sum stochastic differential games with long-run average payoffs. Our main objective is to give conditions for existence and characterization of bias and overtaking optimal equilibria. To this end, first we characterize the family of optimal average payoff strategies. Then, within this family, we impose suitable conditions to determine the subfamilies of bias and overtaking equilibria. A key step to obtain these facts is to show the existence of solutions to the average payoff optimality equations. This is done by the usual "vanishing discount" approach. Finally, a zero-sum game associated to a certain manufacturing process illustrates our results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
