We study first order evolutive Mean Field Games where the Hamiltonian is non-coercive. This situation occurs, for instance, when some directions are "forbidden" to the generic player at some points. We establish the existence of a weak…

This paper introduces a framework of Constrained Mean-Field Games (CMFGs), where each agent solves a constrained Markov decision process (CMDP). This formulation captures scenarios in which agents' strategies are subject to feasibility,…

We consider an optimal control problem in which the state is governed by an unilateral obstacle problem (with obstacle from below) and restricted by a pointwise state constraint (from above). In the presence of control constraints, we…

We study the uniqueness of solutions to systems of PDEs arising in Mean Field Games with several populations of agents and Neumann boundary conditions. The main assumption requires the smallness of some data, e.g., the length of the time…

We analyze a posteriori error bounds for stabilized finite element discretizations of second-order steady-state mean field games. We prove the local equivalence between the $H^1$-norm of the error and the dual norm of the residual. We then…

We consider a mean-field game model where the cost functions depend on a fixed parameter, called \textit{state}, which is unknown to players. Players learn about the state from a a stream of private signals they receive throughout the game.…
