There are few results on mean field game (MFG) systems where the PDEs are either fully nonlinear or have degenerate diffusions. This paper introduces a problem that combines both difficulties. We prove existence and uniqueness for a…

Mean Field Games (MFG) theory describes strategic interactions in differential games with a large number of small and indistinguishable players. Traditionally, the players' control impacts only the drift term in the system's dynamics,…

We prove the global-in-time well-posedness for a broad class of mean field game problems, which is beyond the special linear-quadratic setting, as long as the mean field sensitivity is not too large. Through the stochastic maximum…

We introduce a class of fully nonlinear mean field games posed in $[0,T]\times\mathbb{R}^d$. We justify that they are related to controlled local or nonlocal diffusions, and more generally in our setting, to a new control interpretation…

We analyse fully nonlinear second-order mean field games (MFG) with nondifferentiable Hamiltonians, which take the form of a coupled system of a fully nonlinear Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation and a Kolmogorov-Fokker-Planck partial…

We extend the weak-strong uniqueness principle for mean-field game (MFG) systems to a broad class of second-order stationary and time-dependent problems. Under standard monotonicity, growth, and coercivity assumptions on the Hamiltonian,…

We study Mean Field Games (MFGs) driven by a large class of nonlocal, fractional and anomalous diffusions in the whole space. These non-Gaussian diffusions are pure jump L\'evy processes with some $\sigma$-stable like behaviour. Included…

In a mean field game of controls, players seek to minimize a cost that depends on the joint distribution of players' states and controls. We consider an ergodic problem for second-order mean field games of controls with state constraints,…

In this paper, we consider the mean field game with a common noise and allow the state coefficients to vary with the conditional distribution in a nonlinear way. We assume that the cost function satisfies a convexity and a weak monotonicity…

This paper is concerned with extending the notion of monotone solution to the mean field game (MFG) master equation to situations in which the coefficients are displacement monotone, instead of the previously introduced notion in the flat…
