Controllability Gramian and Kalman rank condition for mean-field control systems
ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations, Tome 27 (2021), article no. 30

This paper is concerned with the exact controllability of linear mean-field stochastic systems with deterministic coefficients. With the help of the theory of mean-field backward stochastic differential equations (MF-BSDEs, for short) and some delicate analysis, we obtain a mean-field version of the Gramian matrix criterion for the general time-variant case, and a mean-field version of the Kalman rank condition for the special time-invariant case.
