These equations combine the features of forward-backward doubly stochastic differential equations with the mean-field approach, allowing the coefficients to depend on the solution distribution. We establish the existence and uniqueness of solutions for MV-FBDSDEs using the method of continuation and provide an example and a counterexample to illustrate our findings. Moreover, we extend the practical applicability of our results by employing them within the context of the stochastic maximum principle for a control problem governed by MV-FBDSDEs. This study contributes to the field of stochastic control problems and presents the first analysis of MV-FBDSDEs in infinite-dimensional spaces.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-06-12T05:20:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60H10", "93E20" ], "keywords": [ "forward-backward doubly stochastic differential equations", "mckean-vlasov forward-backward doubly stochastic differential", "stochastic control", "real separable hilbert spaces" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
