Abstract: Abstract The chapter is devoted to two-player, zero-sum differential games, with a special emphasis on the existence of a value and its characterization in terms of a partial differential equation, the Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs equation. We discuss different classes of games: in finite horizon, in infinite horizon, and pursuit-evasion games. We also analyze differential games in which the players do not have a full information on the structure of the game or cannot completely observe the state. We complete the chapter by a discussion on differential games depending on a singular parameter: for instance, we provide conditions under which the differential game has a long-time average.
