Abstract

The paper deals with game-theoretical control problem for the continuity equation. It is assumed that all agents of a multiagent system are influenced by the same controls of both players depending only on current time and current distribution of the agents. We extend the notion of \(u\)- and \(v\)-stability and the Krasovskii–Subbotin extremal shift rule to a given case and construct suboptimal strategies of players. Also, the existence theorem for a value function is proved.
