Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue on “Modern Trends in Game Theory and Optimal Control” will focus on the latest advancements in the methodologies and applications of game theory and optimal control, including, but not limited to, mean field games and mean field control. We seek articles that compare existing frameworks with emerging approaches, as well as those that provide an overview of new models and numerical analyses. Contributions are expected to encompass either general theoretical developments or specific applications across various fields, including, but not limited to, financial mathematics, engineering, and machine learning.
We encourage submissions that avoid purely conjectural approaches. We welcome authors from around the globe, particularly those engaged in rigorous research that advances our understanding of game theory and optimal control in contemporary settings.
