A Stochastic Control Approach for Constrained Stochastic Differential Games with Jumps and Regimes

Abstract

We develop an approach for two-player constraint zero-sum and nonzero-sum stochastic differential games, which are modeled by Markov regime-switching jump-diffusion processes. We provide the relations between a usual stochastic optimal control setting and a Lagrangian method. In this context, we prove corresponding theorems for two different types of constraints, which lead us to find real-valued and stochastic Lagrange multipliers, respectively. Then, we illustrate our results for a nonzero-sum game problem with the stochastic maximum principle technique. Our application is an example of cooperation between a bank and an insurance company, which is a popular, well-known business agreement type called Bancassurance.
