We consider a sequence of discounted cost, constrained Markov control processes (CCPs) with countable state space, metric action set and possibly unbounded cost functions. We give conditions under which the sequence of optimal values of the CCPs converges to the optimal value of a limiting CCP,...

In this paper, we consider constrained noncooperative N-person stochastic games with discounted cost criteria. The state space is assumed to be countable and the action sets are compact metric spaces. We present three main results. The first concerns the sensitivity or approximation of...

This research conducts a review of theoretical and practical developments of Markov processes in the specialized literature, highlighting their recent advances and showing their potential for their technical goodness, in modeling the decision making processes of rational agents adding more...

This paper concerns the general capacity (GC) problem on metric spaces. Conditions are given under which the strong duality condition holds, that is, GC and its dual GC<Superscript>*</Superscript> are both solvable and their optimal values coincide. Copyright Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2001
