The paper is concerned with the deterministic limit of mean field games with the nonlocal coupling. It is assumed that the dynamics of mean field games are given by nonlinear Markov processes. This type of games includes stochastic mean…

The theory of mean field games aims at studying deterministic or stochastic differential games (Nash equilibria) as the number of agents tends to infinity. Since very few mean field games have explicit or semi-explicit solutions, numerical…
Mean field game facilitates analyzing multi-armed bandit (MAB) for a large number of agents by approximating their interactions with an average effect. Existing mean field models for multi-agent MAB mostly assume a binary reward function,…

In this paper, we prove the existence of classical solutions for time dependent mean-field games with a logarithmic nonlinearity and subquadratic Hamiltonians. Because the logarithm is unbounded from below, this nonlinearity poses…
In this paper we consider a mean-field stochastic differential equation, also called Mc Kean-Vlasov equation, with initial data $(t,x)\in[0,T]\times R^d,$ which coefficients depend on both the solution $X^{t,x}_s$ but also its law. By…
We study stochastic Mean Field Games on networks with sticky transition conditions. In this setting, the diffusion process governing the agent's dynamics can spend finite time both in the interior of the edges and at the vertices. The…
We study infinite horizon discounted-cost and ergodic-cost risk-sensitive zero-sum stochastic games for controlled continuous time Markov chains on a countable state space. For the discounted-cost game we prove the existence of value and…
This paper studies the connection between a class of mean-field games and a social welfare optimization problem. We consider a mean-field game in function spaces with a large population of agents, and each agent seeks to minimize an…
We study the convergence of Markov Decision Processes made of a large number of objects to optimization problems on ordinary differential equations (ODE). We show that the optimal reward of such a Markov Decision Process, satisfying a…
This manuscript discusses planning problems for first- and second-order one-dimensional mean-field games (MFGs). These games are comprised of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation coupled with a Fokker-Planck equation. Applying Poincar\'e's Lemma to…
In stochastic games with incomplete information, the uncertainty is evoked by the lack of knowledge about a player's own and the other players' types, i.e. the utility function and the policy space, and also the inherent stochasticity of…
We study optimal control for mean-field forward backward stochastic differential equations with payoff functionals of mean-field type. Sufficient and necessary optimality conditions in terms of a stochastic maximum principle are derived. As…
