Parallel Network Flow Allocation in Repeated Routing Games via LQR Optimal Control

preprint2021arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this article, we study the repeated routing game problem on a parallel network with affine latency functions on each edge. We cast the game setup in a LQR control theoretic framework, leveraging the Rosenthal potential formulation. We use control techniques to analyze the convergence of the game dynamics with specific cases that lend themselves to optimal control. We design proper dynamics parameters so that the conservation of flow is guaranteed. We provide an algorithmic solution for the general optimal control setup using a multiparametric quadratic programming approach (explicit MPC). Finally we illustrate with numerics the impact of varying system parameters on the solutions.
