Abstract
In this paper we present explicit analytic solutions of coupled Riccati matrix differential systems appearing in open-loop Nash games. Two different cases are considered. Firstly, by means of appropriate algebraic transformations the problem is decoupled so that an explicit solution of the problem is available. The second is based on the existence of a solution of a rectangular Riccati type algebraic matrix equation associated with the problem.
