We study the convergence problem for mean field control, also known as optimal control of McKean-Vlasov dynamics. We assume that the data is smooth but not convex, and thus the limiting value function $\mathcal{U} :[0,T] \times…
The stochastic optimal control of many agents is an important problem in various fields. We investigate the problem of partial observations, where the state of each agent is not fully observed and the control must be decided based on noisy…
We discuss and compare two methods of investigations for the asymptotic regime of stochastic differential games with a finite number of players as the number of players tends to the infinity. These two methods differ in the order in which…

By a memory mean-field process we mean the solution $X(\cdot)$ of a stochastic mean-field equation involving not just the current state $X(t)$ and its law $\mathcal{L}(X(t))$ at time $t$, but also the state values $X(s)$ and its law…

We analyze the problem of controlling a multi-agent system with additive white noise through parsimonious interventions on a selected subset of the agents (leaders). For such a controlled system with a SDE constraint, we introduce a…
