Discrete Operational Calculus in Delayed Stochastic Games

Abstract

This article deals with classes of antagonistic games with two players. A game is specified in terms of two `hostile' stochastic processes representing mutual attacks upon random times exerting casualties of random magnitudes. The game ends when one of the players is defeated. We target the first passage time $\tau_\rho$ of the defeat and the number of casualties to either player upon $\tau_\rho$. Here we validate our claim of analytic tractability of the general formulas obtained in [1] under various transforms.
