Existence and uniqueness result for mean field games with congestion effect on graphs

This paper presents a general existence and uniqueness result for mean field games equations on graphs ($\mathcal{G}$-MFG). In particular, our setting allows to take into account congestion effects of almost any form. These general congestion effects are particularly relevant in graphs in which the cost to move from one node to another may for instance depend on the proportion of players in both the source node and the target node. Existence is proved using a priori estimates and a fixed point argument à la Schauder. We propose a new criterion to ensure uniqueness in the case of Hamiltonian functions with a complex (non-local) structure. This result generalizes the discrete counterpart of existing uniqueness results.
