TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the case of a team of pursuers and evaders, and provided a foundation to formally analyze complex and high-dimensional conflicts between teams by means of differential game theory, where the players' optimal strategies require codesign of cooperative optimal assignments and optimal guidance laws.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an organized introduction of pursuit-evasion differential games with an overview of recent advances in the area and present two representative pursuit evasion differential games: the two-cutters and fugitive ship differential game and the active target defense differential game.

TL;DR: An organized introduction of pursuit-evasion differential games with an overview of recent advances in the area and a summary of the seminal work is outlined, highlighting important contributions.

TL;DR: Classical differential game theory is extended to simultaneously address weapon assignments and multiplayer pursuit-evasion scenarios and Saddle-point strategies that provide guaranteed performance for each team regardless of the actual strategies implemented by the opponent are devised.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the case where the defender is faster than the attacker and provided optimal heading angles for the target and the defender team to maximize the terminal separation between the targets and the attackers.
