Dynamical Systems Theory compared to Game Theory: The case of Salamis's battle
Abstract
In this paper, we present an innovative non-linear discrete system trying to model the historic battle of Salamis between Greeks and Persians. September 2020 marks the anniversary of the 2500 years that have passed since this famous naval battle, which took place in late September 480 B.C. The suggested model describes very well the most effective strategic behavior between two participants during a battle (or a war). Moreover, we compare the results of the Dynamical Systems analysis to Game Theory, considering this conflict as a "war game".
