In this paper we focus on a general type of mean-field stochastic control problem with partial observation, in which the coefficients depend in a non-linear way not only on the state process $X_t$ and its control $u_t$ but also on the…

In this paper, we investigate gradient estimate of the Poisson equation and the exponential convergence in the Wasserstein metric $W_{1,d_{l^1}}$, uniform in the number of particles, and uniform-in-time propagation of chaos for the…
We study a system of $N$ interacting particles on $\bf{Z}$. The stochastic dynamics consists of two components: a free motion of each particle (independent random walks) and a pair-wise interaction between particles. The interaction belongs…
It is known that state-dependent, multi-step Lyapunov bounds lead to greatly simplified verification theorems for stability for large classes of Markov chain models. This is one component of the "fluid model" approach to stability of…

We propose a simple and original approach for solving linear-quadratic mean-field stochastic control problems. We study both finite-horizon and infinite-horizon problems, and allow notably some coefficients to be stochastic. Our method is…
We introduce a class of robust control problems formulated in min-max form, in which the principal agent is viewed as a central planner facing Nature. The agent's cost is a nonlinear function of all its possible realizations, encompassing…
In this paper, we establish well-posedness of reflected McKean-Vlasov SDEs and their particle approximations in smooth non-convex domains. We prove convergence of the interacting particle system to the corresponding mean-field limit with…
We provide a new version of the Tikhonov theorem for both two-scale forward systems and also two-scale forward-backward systems of stochastic differential equations, which also covers the McKean-Vlasov case. Differently from what is usually…
Consider the problem of a government that wants to reduce the debt-to-GDP (gross domestic product) ratio of a country. The government aims at choosing a debt reduction policy which minimises the total expected cost of having debt, plus the…
The stability of stochastic Model Predictive Control (MPC) subject to additive disturbances is often demonstrated in the literature by constructing Lyapunov-like inequalities that ensure closed-loop performance bounds and boundedness of the…
This paper focus on investigating the explicit rate of convergence for the propagation of chaos, in a pathwise sense a family of interacting stochastic particle related to some Brownian driven McKean-Vlasov dynamics. Precisely the McKean…

In this work, we consider one-dimensional particles interacting in mean-field type through a bounded kernel. In addition, when particles hit some barrier (say zero), they are removed from the system. This absorption of particles is…
