  • Abstract
    This note deals with linear-quadratic Stackelberg differential games including time preference rates with an open-loop information structure. The properties of the characteristic matrix associated with the necessary conditions for a Stackelberg strategy are pointed out. It is shown that such a matrix exhibits a special symmetry property of its eigenvalues. Sufficient conditions to guarantee a predefined degree of stability are given based on the distribution of the eigenvalues in the complex plane.
