Abstract

This paper is concerned with mean field linear quadratic social control with common noise, where the weight matrices of individual costs are indefinite We first obtain a set of forward–backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs) from variational analysis, and then construct a centralized feedback representation by decoupling the FBSDEs. By using solutions of two Riccati equations, we design a set of decentralized control laws, which is further shown to be asymptotically social optimal. The necessary and sufficient conditions are given for uniform stabilization of the systems by exploiting the relation between population state average and aggregate effect. An explicit expression of the optimal social cost is given in terms of two Riccati equations. Besides, the decentralized optimal solution is provided for mean field social control problem with finite agents.
