This chapter contains a preliminary analysis of the master equation in the simpler case when there is no common noise. Some of the proofs given in this chapter consist of a sketch only. One of the reasons is that some of the arguments used to investigate the mean field games (MFGs) system have been already developed in the literature. Another reason is that the chapter constitutes a starter only, specifically devoted to the simpler case without common noise. It provides details of the global Lipschitz continuity of H. The solutions of the MFG system are uniformly Lipschitz continuous, which are independently of initial conditions.

This chapter investigates the second-order master equation with common noise, which requires the well-posedness of the mean field game (MFG) system. It also defines and analyzes the solution of the master equation. The chapter explains the forward component of the MFG system that is recognized as the characteristics of the master equation. The regularity of the solution of the master equation is explored through the tangent process that solves the linearized MFG system. It also analyzes first-order differentiability and second-order differentiability in the direction of the measure on the same model as for the first-order derivatives. This chapter concludes with further description of the derivation of the master equation and well-posedness of the stochastic MFG system.
