Abstract :
This paper presents an application of mean field games to dynamic production competition. We first introduce a market of a large number of agents (firms) with sticky prices and adjustment costs. The cost functional of each agent has indefinite state weights. By solving a limiting optimal control problem subject to consistent mean field approximations, a set of decentralized strategies is obtained and further shown to be an ε -Nash equilibrium.
