Title: Correlated equilibria and mean field games

 

Abstract: In the context of mean field games (MFGs), we introduce a generalization of mean field game solution, called correlated solution, which can be seen as the mean field game analogue of a correlated equilibrium. The latter is a generalization of Nash equilibrium for stochastic games. Our notion of solution can be justified in two ways for MFGs in discrete time and finite state space: correlated solutions arise as limits of exchangeable correlated equilibria in restricted (Markov open-loop) strategies for the underlying $N$-player games, and approximate $N$-player correlated equilibria can be constructed  starting from a correlated solution to the mean field game. Moreover, those results can be extended to progressive deviations, possibly depending on the whole history of the state and the flow of measures. In this talk we will focus especially on a further extension to continuous time MFGs through the notion of coarse correlated equilibrium. This talk is based on joint works with O. Bonesini, F. Cannerozzi and M. Fischer.

Title:  McKean–Vlasov Game of Commodity Production, Consumption and Trading

Abstract: We propose a model where a producer and a consumer can  affect the price dynamics of some commodity controlling drift and  volatility of, respectively, the production rate and the consumption  rate. We assume that the producer has a short position in a forward  contract on
λ units of the underlying at a fixed price F, while the  consumer has the corresponding long position. Moreover, both players  are risk-averse with respect to their financial position and their  risk aversions are modelled through an integrated-variance  penalization. We study the impact of risk aversion on the interaction  between the producer and the consumer as well as on the derivative price. In mathematical terms, we are dealing with a two-player  linear-quadratic McKean–Vlasov stochastic differential game. Using  methods based on the martingale optimality principle and BSDEs, we  find a Nash equilibrium and characterize the corresponding strategies  and payoffs in semi-explicit form. Furthermore, we compute the two  indifference prices (one for the producer and one for the consumer)  induced by that equilibrium and we determine the quantity λ such that  the players agree on the price. Finally, we illustrate our results  with some numerics. In particular, we focus on how the risk aversions  and the volatility control costs of the players affect the derivative  price. Joint work with R. Aid, O. Bonesini and L. Campi.
