We study the stochastic control problem of maximizing expected utility from terminal wealth under a non-bankruptcy constraint. The wealth process is subject to shocks produced by a general marked point process. The problem of the agent is…

This paper investigates a mean-field game (MFG) problem for mean-variance (MV) portfolio management, highlighting a new type of relative performance encoded by the peer-based risk aversion. Specifically, the risk aversion is formulated as a…
