Abstract:
We present a new interpretation of the Lions derivative as the Radon-Nikodym derivative of a vector measure, which provides a canonical extension of the Lions derivative for functions taking values in infinite dimensional Banach spaces. This is of particular relevance for the analysis of Hilbert space valued Mean-Field equations. As an application we derive a stochastic maximum principle for controlled Mean-Field stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs). Furthermore we present a mild Ito-formula for Mean-Field SPDEs, which provides the basis for a higher order Taylor expansion and higher order numerical schemes.
