Abstract
This paper presents the first study on the discrimination problem of symmetric games with respect to a permutation group. Based on the algebraic representation of games, the necessary and sufficient conditions for symmetric games with respect to a permutation group are first derived. Subsequently, by the properties of the semi-tensor product of matrices and swap matrices, a minimal discriminant equation system comprising the fewest equations for verifying symmetric games with respect to a permutation group is constructed. Finally, three examples are provided to illustrate the main theoretical results presented of the paper.
期刊介绍:
IET Control Theory & Applications is devoted to control systems in the broadest sense, covering new theoretical results and the applications of new and established control methods. Among the topics of interest are system modelling, identification and simulation, the analysis and design of control systems (including computer-aided design), and practical implementation. The scope encompasses technological, economic, physiological (biomedical) and other systems, including man-machine interfaces.
Most of the papers published deal with original work from industrial and government laboratories and universities, but subject reviews and tutorial expositions of current methods are welcomed. Correspondence discussing published papers is also welcomed.
Applications papers need not necessarily involve new theory. Papers which describe new realisations of established methods, or control techniques applied in a novel situation, or practical studies which compare various designs, would be of interest. Of particular value are theoretical papers which discuss the applicability of new work or applications which engender new theoretical applications.
