Time-discrete systems analysis, contrallability and optimisation of time-discrete systems and dynamical games

Focuses on the analysis, optimization and controllability of time- discrete dynamical systems and games under the aspect of stability, controllability and (for games) cooperative and non-cooperative treatment. The investigation of stability is based on Lyapunov's method which is generalized to non-autonomous systems. Optimization and ...
