In a regular mean field game (MFG), the agents are assumed to be insignificant, they do not realize their effect on the population level and this may result in a phenomenon coined as the Tragedy of the Commons by the economists. However, in…

A standard assumption in mean-field game (MFG) theory is that the coupling between the Hamilton-Jacobi equation and the transport equation is monotonically non-decreasing in the density of the population. In many cases, this assumption…
