A Continuation Method for Nash Equilibria in Structured Games
We describe algorithms for computing Nash equilibria in structured game representations, including both graphical games and multi-agent influence diagrams (MAIDs). The algorithms...

Timed Alternating-Time Temporal Logic
We add freeze quantifiers to the game logic ATL in order to specify real-time objectives for games played on timed structures. We define the semantics of the resulting logic TATL b...
