Abstract

We survey recent results on controlled particle systems. The control aspect introduces new challenges in the discussion of properties and suitable mean field limits. Some of the aspects are highlighted in a detailed discussion of a particular controlled particle dynamics. The applied techniques are shown on this simple problem to illustrate the basic methods. Computational results confirming the theoretical findings are presented and further particle models are discussed.
