Abstract

Computing Nash equilibria in continuous games is a difficult problem. In contrast to discrete games, algorithms developed for continues ones are rather inefficient. This paper proposes a new approach - making use of interval methods we try to solve the problem directly, seeking points that fulfill Nash conditions. We also consider a shared-memory parallelization of the proposed algorithm. Preliminary numerical results are presented. Some new practical aspects of interval methods are considered.
