A second-order Mean Field Games model with controlled diffusion
摘要
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, leaving the diffusion term uncontrolled. This paper explores a novel scenario where agents control both drift and diffusion. This leads to a fully non-linear MFG system with a fully non-linear Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equation. We use viscosity arguments to prove existence of solutions for the HJB equation, and then we adapt and extend a result from Krylov to prove a
