Abstract

This article focuses two issues related to the first-order discounted mean field games system. The first is the time discretization problem. The time discretization approach enables us to prove the existence of solutions (u,m) of the system, where u is a viscosity solution of the discounted Hamilton-Jacobi equation and m is a projected minimizing measure satisfying the continuity equation in the sense of distributions. The second is the vanishing discount problems for both the discounted mean field games system and its discretized system. The methods we use primarily derive from weak KAM theory. Moreover, we provide an example demonstrating the non-uniqueness of solutions to the discounted mean field games system.
