High order computation of optimal transport, mean field planning, and mean field games

Abstract

Mean-field games (MFGs) have shown strong modeling capabilities for large systems in various fields, driving growth in computational methods for mean-field game problems. However, high order methods have not been thoroughly investigated. In this work, we explore applying general high-order numerical schemes with finite element methods in the space-time domain for computing the optimal transport (OT), mean-field planning (MFP), and MFG problems. We conduct several experiments to validate the convergence rate of the high order method numerically. Those numerical experiments also demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of our approach.
