The lecture, a continuation of last year's, continues the presentation of a new theory called " mean-field games theory ", developed in collaboration with Mr. Jean-Michel Lasry. The aim of this theory is to introduce, justify, analyze and apply in different contexts a new class of mathematical models for studying the collective behavior of a very large number of interacting agents (or players in the sense of game theory), all of whom wish to " optimize " their decisions.

This year's topics include the uniqueness of solutions, links with optimal control and a new mathematical approach to MFGs.
