This paper deals with the risk-sensitive control problem for mean-field stochastic delay differential equations (MF-SDDEs) with partial information. Firstly, under the assumptions that the control domain is not convex and the value function is non-smooth, we establish a stochastic maximum principle (SMP). Then, by means of Itô's formula and some continuous dependence, we prove the existence and uniqueness results for another type of MF-SDDEs. Meanwhile, the verification theorem for the MF-SDDEs is obtained by using a clever construction of the Hamiltonian function. Finally, based on our verification theorem, a linear-quadratic system is investigated and the optimal control is also derived by the stochastic filtering technique.Key Words: Stochastic maximum principle, risk-sensitive control, mean-field type, stochastic delay differential equations, continuous dependence theorem.)However, in the macroscopic level, by considering the mass effect of such delayed particle systems, we can obtain the following MF-SDDEs Heping Ma received the Bachelor degree in applied mathematics from Anyang
