Adaptive networks have the capability to pursue solutions of global stochastic optimization problems by relying only local interactions within neighborhoods. The diffusion of information through repeated interactions allows for globally optimal behavior, without the need for central coordination. Most existing strategies are developed for cooperative learning settings, where the objective of the network is common to all agents. We consider in this work a team setting, where a subset of the agents form a team with a common goal, while competing with the remainder of the network. We develop an algorithm for decentralized competition among teams of adaptive agents, analyze its dynamics and present an application in the decentralized training of generative adversarial neural networks.
