Traditional solvable game theory and mean-field-type game theory (risk-aware games) predominantly focus on quadratic costs due to their analytical tractability. Nevertheless, they often fail to capture critical non-linearities inherent in…

We study the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions with prescribed $L^2$-norm for the Sobolev critical Schr\"odinger equation on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$, $N\ge3$: \[ -\Delta U = \lambda U + U^{2^{*}-1},\qquad…

We prove the existence of infinitely many high energy sign-changing solutions for some classes of Schrodinger-Poisson systems in bounded domains, with nonlinearities having subcritical or critical growth. Our approach is variational and…

Mean field games (MFGs) model equilibria in games with a continuum of weakly interacting players as limiting systems of symmetric $n$-player games. We consider the finite-state, infinite-horizon problem with ergodic cost. Assuming Markovian…

Mean Field Game (MFG) systems describe equilibrium configurations in games with infinitely many interacting controllers. We are interested in the behavior of this system as the horizon becomes large, or as the discount factor tends to $0$.…

This work is mainly concerned with the so-called limit theory for mean-field games. Adopting the weak formulation paradigm put forward by Carmona and Lacker, we consider a fully non-Markovian setting allowing for drift control and…

An overdetermination is introduced in an initial condition for the second order mean field games system (MFGS). This makes the resulting problem close to the classical ill-posed Cauchy problems for PDEs. Indeed, in such a problem and…
