Systemic Risk: Mathematical Modelling and Interdisciplinary Approaches

I will review how optimal transport can be seen as a mean field game via the Benamou-Brenier formula. Then I will show how Nash-Cournot equilibria are related to local minimizers of interaction energies or free energies penalized with the Wassertein distance. I will discuss briefly numerical schemes based on the optimal transportation viewpoint for the evolution PDEs obtained which are related to gradient flows of the free energy.
