Abstract

The volatility of global commodity prices is increasingly exacerbated by regional instabilities. This crisis is forcing sovereign governments and private carriers into a complex strategic tug-of-war over revenue and survival. In this paper, we address the critical problem of maintaining corridor viability amidst such disruptions, motivated by the need for resilient infrastructure management during geopolitical shocks. We employ a stochastic differential game framework, utilizing Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs equations to derive a unique Feedback Nash Equilibrium for optimal tax and freight rates.
