Dear Colleagues,

Please find below information about the sixth seminar of the DEWS Colloquia organized by the Center of Excellence for Research DEWS (https://dews.univaq.it/). In order not to forget the opportunity, add this event to your calendar.

Abstract: In recent years, the need has emerged to control large networks of interacting systems to allow for their safe and effective operation, for instance in power distribution, traffic regulation and communication infrastructures. Hand in hand with distributed optimization, Nash games provide powerful tools to ensure coordination, namely the attainment of a desirable equilibrium, especially in the presence of self-interested agents. In this talk, we focus on Nash equilibrium seeking under partial-decision information, where each agent can only observe the decisions of some neighbors over a communication network, while its cost function possibly depends on the actions of all the competitors. For this relatively novel scenario, we discuss the limitations of the existing methods, and we propose more efficient algorithms.
