Abstract
A class of $m$-player dynamic positional games on graphs
that extends the two-player zero-sum mean payoff games on graphs is
formulated and studied. We consider dynamic positional games with
average and discounted payoffs criteria for the players. We show
that for an arbitrary game with average payoffs there exists Nash
equilibrium in mixed stationary strategies and for an arbitrary
two-player zero-sum average positional game there exists Nash
equilibrium in pure stationary strategies. Additionally we show that
for an arbitrary dynamic positional game with discounted payoffs
there exists a Nash equilibrium in pure stationary strategies. Some
approaches for determining the optimal stationary strategies of the
players in such games are proposed.
