We study a class of local, first-order, stationary mean-field games (MFGs) on bounded domains with nonstandard mixed boundary conditions: prescribed inflow on $\Gamma_N$ and a relaxed Signorini-type exit condition on $\Gamma_D$…

This paper introduces the concept of perfect monotone equilibrium in Bayesian games, which refines the standard monotone equilibrium by accounting for the possibility of unintended moves (trembling hand) and thereby enhancing robustness to…

In this paper, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of solutions to a stationary mean field game model introduced by J.-M. Lasry and P.-L. Lions. This model features a quadratic Hamiltonian with possibly singular congestion effects.…

The objective of this paper is to analyze the existence of equilibria for a class of deterministic mean field games of controls. The interaction between players is due to both a congestion term and a price function which depends on the…

We present a novel notion of $\lambda$-monotonicity for an $n$-species system of partial differential equations governed by mass-preserving flow dynamics, extending monotonicity in Banach spaces to the Wasserstein-2 metric space. We show…

The paper studies the convergence, as $N$ tends to infinity, of a system of $N$ coupled Hamilton-Jacobi equations, the Nash system. This system arises in differential game theory. We describe the limit problem in terms of the so-called…

We construct a semi-Lagrangian scheme for first-order, time-dependent, and non-local Mean Field Games. The convergence of the scheme to a weak solution of the system is analyzed by exploiting a key monotonicity property. To solve the…
