Optimal incentives to mitigate epidemics: a Stackelberg mean field game approach

A Aurell, R Carmona, G Dayanikli, M Lauriere - SIAM Journal on Control and …, 2022 - SIAM
Motivated by the models of epidemic control in large populations, we consider a Stackelberg
mean field game model between a principal and a mean field of agents whose states evolve …

An introduction to mean field game theory

Y Achdou, P Cardaliaguet, F Delarue, A Porretta… - Mean Field Games …, 2020 - Springer
These notes are an introduction to Mean Field Game (MFG) theory, which models differential
games involving infinitely many interacting players. We focus here on the Partial Differential …

From the master equation to mean field game limit theory: a central limit theorem

F Delarue, D Lacker, K Ramanan - 2019 - projecteuclid.org
Mean field games (MFGs) describe the limit, as n tends to infinity, of stochastic differential
games with n players interacting with one another through their common empirical …

FROM THE MASTER EQUATION TO MEAN FIELD GAME LIMIT THEORY

F Delarue, D Lacker, K Ramanan - The Annals of Probability, 2020 - JSTOR
We study a sequence of symmetric n-player stochastic differential games driven by both
idiosyncratic and common sources of noise, in which players interact with each other …

On the convergence problem in mean field games: a two state model without uniqueness

A Cecchin, PD Pra, M Fischer, G Pelino - SIAM Journal on Control and …, 2019 - SIAM
We consider N-player and mean field games in continuous time over a finite horizon, where
the position of each agent belongs to {-1,1\}. If there is uniqueness of mean field game …

Finite state mean field games with Wright–Fisher common noise

E Bayraktar, A Cecchin, A Cohen, F Delarue - Journal de Mathématiques …, 2021 - Elsevier
We force uniqueness in finite state mean field games by adding a Wright–Fisher common
noise. We achieve this by analyzing the master equation of this game, which is a degenerate …

Applications of mean field games in financial engineering and economic theory

R Carmona - arXiv preprint arXiv:2012.05237, 2020 - arxiv.org
This is an expanded version of the lecture given at the AMS Short Course on Mean Field
Games, on January 13, 2020 in Denver CO. The assignment was to discuss applications of …

Analysis of a finite state many player game using its master equation

E Bayraktar, A Cohen - SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2018 - SIAM
We consider an n-player symmetric stochastic game with weak interactions between the
players. Time is continuous, and the horizon and the number of states are finite. We show …

Finite state graphon games with applications to epidemics

A Aurell, R Carmona, G Dayanıklı… - Dynamic Games and …, 2022 - Springer
We consider a game for a continuum of non-identical players evolving on a finite state
space. Their heterogeneous interactions are represented with a graphon, which can be …

[HTML][HTML] Convergence, fluctuations and large deviations for finite state mean field games via the master equation

A Cecchin, G Pelino - Stochastic Processes and their Applications, 2019 - Elsevier
We show the convergence of finite state symmetric N-player differential games, where
players control their transition rates from state to state, to a limiting dynamics given by a finite …
