Steering the distribution of agents in mean-field and cooperative games

The purpose of this work is to pose and solve the problem to guide a collection of weakly interacting dynamical systems (agents, particles, etc.) to a specified terminal distribution. The framework is that of mean-field and of cooperative games. A terminal cost is used to accomplish the task; we establish that the map between terminal costs and terminal probability distributions is onto. Our approach relies on and extends the theory of optimal mass transport and its generalizations.
