Abstract
Models for flows on networks arise in the study of traffic and pedestrian crowds. These models encode congestion effects, the behavior and preferences of agents, such as aversion to crowds and their attempts to minimize travel time. We will present the Wardrop equilibrium model on networks with flow-dependent costs and its connection with stationary mean-field games.
