Weak infinitesimal operators and stochastic differential games.

Ramón Ardanuy, A. Alcalá (1992)

Stochastica

This article considers the problem of finding the optimal strategies in stochastic differential games with two players, using the weak infinitesimal operator of process xi the solution of d(xi) = f(xi,t,u1,u2)dt + sigma(xi,t,u1,u2)dW. For two-person zero-sum stochastic games we formulate the minimax solution; analogously, we perform the solution for coordination and non-cooperative stochastic differential games.

Weighted entropies

Bruce Ebanks (2010)

Open Mathematics

We present an axiomatic characterization of entropies with properties of branching, continuity, and weighted additivity. We deliberately do not assume that the entropies are symmetric. The resulting entropies are generalizations of the entropies of degree α, including the Shannon entropy as the case α = 1. Such “weighted” entropies have potential applications to the “utility of gambling” problem.
