We study a toy model of linear-quadratic mean field game with delay. We "lift" the delayed dynamic into an infinite dimensional space, and recast the mean field game system which is made of a forward Kolmogorov equation and a backward…

We investigate the global numerical approximation of a class of extended mean field control problems (MFC), where the dynamics and costs depend on the joint distribution of the state and the control. We propose a framework to approximate…
