A maximum principle for fully coupled controlled forward–backward stochastic difference systems of mean-field type

Abstract In this paper, we consider the optimal control problem for fully coupled forward–backward stochastic difference equations of mean-field type under weak convexity assumption. By virtue of employing a suitable product rule and formulating a mean-field backward stochastic difference equation,...
