Mean field games based on the stable-like processes
In this paper, we investigate the mean field games with K classes of agents who are weakly coupled via the empirical measure. The underlying dynamics of the representative agents is assumed to be a controlled nonlinear Markov process associated with rather general integro-differential generators of L´evy-Khintchine type (with variable coefficients), with the major stress on applications to stable and stable- like processes, as well as their various modifications like tempered stable-like processes or their mixtures with diffusions. We show that nonlinear measure-valued kinetic equations describing the dynamic law of large numbers limit for system with large number N of agents are solvable and that their solutions represent 1/N-Nash equilibria for approximating systems of N agents
Symbolic Computation of Variational Symmetries in Optimal Control
We use a computer algebra system to compute, in an efficient way, optimal
control variational symmetries up to a gauge term. The symmetries are then used
to obtain families of Noether's first integrals, possibly in the presence of
nonconservative external forces. As an application, we obtain eight independent
first integrals for the sub-Riemannian nilpotent problem (2,3,5,8).Comment: Presented at the 4th Junior European Meeting on "Control and

[SADE] A Maple package for the Symmetry Analysis of Differential Equations
We present the package SADE (Symmetry Analysis of Differential Equations) for
the determination of symmetries and related properties of systems of
differential equations. The main methods implemented are: Lie, nonclassical,
Lie-B\"acklund and potential symmetries, invariant solutions, first-integrals,
N\"other theorem for both discrete and continuous systems, solution of ordinary
differential equations, reduction of order or dimension using Lie symmetries,
classification of differential equations, Casimir invariants, and the
quasi-polynomial formalism for ODE's (previously implemented in the package
QPSI by the authors) for the determination of quasi-polynomial first-integrals,
Lie symmetries and invariant surfaces. Examples of use of the package are
given
