Infinite-Horizon Team-Optimal Incentive Stackelberg Games for Linear Stochastic Systems

In this paper, an infinite-horizon team-optimal incentive Stackelberg strategy is investigated for a class of stochastic linear systems with many non-cooperative leaders and one follower. An incentive structure is adopted which allows for the leader's team-optimal Nash solution. It is shown that the incentive strategy set can be obtained by solving the cross-coupled stochastic algebraic Riccati equations (CCSAREs). In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy, a numerical example is solved.
