We compute a parametric description of the totally mixed Nash equilibria of a generic game in normal form with pre-fixed structure. Using this representation, we show conditions under which a game has the maximum possible number of this…

This paper establishes an equilibrium existence result for a class of Mean Field Games involving Reflected Stochastic Differential Equations. The proof relies on the framework of relaxed controls and martingale problems.

In this article, we introduce a new class of entropy-penalized robust mean field game problems in which the representative agent is opposed to Nature. The agent's objective is formulated as a min-max stochastic control problem, in which…

We prove that solutions to a class of Mean Field Game systems with discount are unique provided that the discount factor is large enough, and the Lagrangian term is (proportionally) small enough. This identifies an asymptotic uniqueness…

We present an example of symmetric ergodic $N$-players differential games, played in memory strategies on the position of the players, for which the limit set, as $N\to +\infty$, of Nash equilibrium payoffs is large, although the game has a…

We consider a class of Mean Field Games in which the agents may interact through the statistical distribution of their states and controls. It is supposed that the Hamiltonian behaves like a power of its arguments as they tend to infinity,…

Computing Nash equilibria for strategic multi-agent systems is challenging for expensive black box systems. Motivated by the ubiquity of games involving exploitation of common resources, this paper considers the above problem for potential…

In this paper, we consider Mean Field Games in the presence of common noise relaxing the usual independence assumption of individual random noise. We assume a simple linear model with terminal cost satisfying a convexity and a weak…

Modern applications require robots to comply with multiple, often conflicting rules and to interact with the other agents. We present Posetal Games as a class of games in which each player expresses a preference over the outcomes via a…

We investigate a mean field game model for the production of exhaustible resources. In this model, firms produce comparable goods, strategically set their production rate in order to maximise profit, and leave the market as soon as they…

We present a simulation-based approach for solution of mean field games (MFGs), using the framework of empirical game-theoretical analysis (EGTA). Our primary method employs a version of the double oracle, iteratively adding strategies…

Mean-field games have been studied under the assumption of very large number of players. For such large systems, the basic idea consists to approximate large games by a stylized game model with a continuum of players. The approach has been…

We consider a class of dynamic collective choice models with social interactions, whereby a large number of non-uniform agents have to individually settle on one of multiple discrete alternative choices, with the relevance of their would-be…

We introduce the notion of stable solution in mean field game theory: they are locally isolated solutions of the mean field game system. We prove that such solutions exist in potential mean field games and are local attractors for learning…
