Discrete-time Mean-Field Stochastic Control with Partial Observations
We study the optimal control of discrete time mean filed dynamical systems under partial observations. We express the global law of the filtered process as a controlled system with its own dynamics. Following a dynamic programming approach, we prove a verification result providing a solution to the optimal control of the filtered system. As an application, we study a general linear quadratic example for which an explicit solution is given. We also describe an algorithm for the numerical approximation of the optimal value and provide numerical experiments on a financial example.
