Abstract

In this paper, we present a new solving approach for a class of multi-leader–follower games. For the problem studied, we firstly propose a neural network model. Then, based on Lyapunov and LaSalle theories, we prove that the trajectory of the neural network model can converge to the equilibrium point, which corresponds to the Nash equilibrium of the problem studied. The numerical results show that the proposed neural network approach is feasible to the problem studied.
