Abstract

This article investigates the convergence of the Generalized Frank-Wolfe (GFW) algorithm for the resolution of potential and convex second-order mean field games. More specifically, the impact of the discretization of the mean-field-game system on the effectiveness of the GFW algorithm is analyzed. The article focuses on the theta-scheme introduced by the authors in a previous study. A sublinear and a linear rate of convergence are obtained, for two different choices of stepsizes. These rates have the mesh-independence property: the underlying convergence constants are independent of the discretization parameters.
