A static potential game is a non-cooperative game for which there exists a fictitious function, also referred to as a potential function, whose optimizers provide a Nash equilibrium of the associated non-cooperative game. In this work, we study non-zero-sum finite horizon difference games with feedback information structure which admit a potential game structure. We provide sufficient conditions for the existence of an optimal control problem such that the optimal solution of this problem provides a feedback Nash equilibrium of the corresponding non-cooperative game. We specialize the obtained results to a linear-quadratic setting so as to obtain these sufficient conditions in terms of the problem data. Finally, we illustrate our results using numerical simulations.
