On global existence of solutions to coupled matrix Riccati equations in closed-loop Nash games

Presents comparison and global existence results for solutions of coupled matrix Riccati differential equations appearing in closed loop Nash games and in mixed H/sub 2//H/sub /spl infin//-type problems. Convergence of solutions is established for the diagonal case, solutions of the corresponding algebraic equations are discussed using numerical examples.
