We provide an approximation scheme for first-order stationary mean field games with a separable Hamiltonian. First, we discretize Hamilton-Jacobi equations by discretizing in time, and then prove the existence of minimizing holonomic…

In this article we consider finite Mean Field Games (MFGs), i.e. with finite time and finite states. We adopt the framework introduced in Gomes Mohr and Souza in 2010, and study two seemly unexplored subjects. In the first one, we analyze…

We show that the long time average of solutions of first order mean field game systems in finite horizon is governed by an ergodic system of mean field game type. The well-posedness of this later system and the uniqueness of the ergodic…

We study continuous-time heterogeneous agent models cast as Mean Field Games, in the Aiyagari-Bewley-Huggett framework. The model couples a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation for individual optimization with a Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov…
