Maximum Principle for Partial Observed Zero-Sum Stochastic Differential Game of Mean-Field SDEs

Abstract: In this paper, we consider a partial observed two-person zero-sum stochastic differential game problem where the system is governed by a stochastic differential equation of mean-field type. Under standard assumptions on the coefficients, the maximum principles for optimal open-loop control in a strong sense as well as a weak one are established by the associated optimal control theory in Tang and Meng (2016). To illustrate the general results, a class of linear quadratic stochastic differential game problem is discussed and the existence and dual characterization for the partially observed open-loop saddle are obtained.
