Abstract

Differential Games of N players defined by stochastic systems with controlled diffusion terms are considered. Necessary conditions of equilibrium strategy are obtained. These conditions are specified for the linear quadratic differential game of N players in terms of differential Riccati equation for program and positional equilibrium situations.
