We study the convergence problem of mean-field control theory in the presence of state constraints and non-degenerate idiosyncratic noise. Our main result is the convergence of the value functions associated to stochastic control problems…
We study a high-dimensional stochastic optimization problem which features both control and stopping. In particular, a central planner steers a large population of particles, and can also remove particles at any time by paying a penalty. In…
We propose a particle system of diffusion processes coupled through a chain-like network structure described by an infinite-dimensional, nonlinear stochastic differential equation of McKean-Vlasov type. It has both (i) a local chain…
We study a McKean--Vlasov equation arising from a mean-field model of a particle system with positive feedback. As particles hit a barrier they cause the other particles to jump in the direction of the barrier and this feedback mechanism…

The empirical measure flow of a McKean-Vlasov $n$-particle system with common noise is a measure-valued process whose law solves an associated martingale problem. We obtain a stability result for the sequence of martingale problems: all…
We study a system of reflected Brownian motions on the positive half-line in which each particle has a drift toward the origin determined by the local times at the origin of all the particles. If this local time drift is too strong, such…
We consider the control of McKean-Vlasov dynamics (or mean-field control) with probabilistic state constraints. We rely on a level-set approach which provides a representation of the constrained problem in terms of an unconstrained one with…
We consider a novel McKean--Vlasov control problem with contagion through killing of particles and common noise. Each particle is killed at an exponential rate according to an intensity process that increases whenever the particle is…

We propose an interacting particle system to model the evolution of a system of banks with mutual exposures. In this model, a bank defaults when its normalized asset value hits a lower threshold, and its default causes instantaneous losses…
This note is a companion article to the recent paper L\"ocherbach, Loukianova, Marini (2024). We consider mean field systems of interacting particles. Each particle jumps with a jump rate depending on its position. When jumping, a…
