Finding optimal Stackelberg production strategies: How to produce in times of war?
Inspired by a military context, we study a Stackelberg production game where a country's government, the leader, wants to maximize the production of military assets. The leader does so by allocating his resources among a set of production facilities. His opponent, the follower, observes this al...

description | Inspired by a military context, we study a Stackelberg production game where a country's government, the leader, wants to maximize the production of military assets. The leader does so by allocating his resources among a set of production facilities. His opponent, the follower, observes this allocation and tries to destroy the associated production as much as possible by allocating his destructive resources, for example bombs, among these facilities. In this paper, we identify a follower's optimal strategy. For the leader, we show that an optimal production strategy can be found in the class of so-called seried-balanced strategies. We present a linear time algorithm that finds an optimal strategy in this class. |
