Congestion games are popular models often used to study the system-level inefficiencies caused by selfish agents, typically measured by the price of anarchy. One may expect that aligning the agents' preferences with the system-level…

Multi-agent reinforcement learning has recently shown great promise as an approach to networked system control. Arguably, one of the most difficult and important tasks for which large scale networked system control is applicable is…

Mean-field Games systems (MFGs) serve as paradigms to describe the games among a huge number of players. In this paper, we consider the ergodic Mean-field Games systems in the bounded domain with Neumann boundary conditions and the…
