Abstract: In this paper we study second order stationary Mean Field Game systems under density constraints on a bounded domain OmegasubsetmathbbRd. We show the existence of weak solutions for power-like Hamiltonians with arbitrary order of growth. Our strategy is a variational one, i.e. we obtain the Mean Field Game system as the optimality condition of a convex optimization problem, which has a solution. When the Hamiltonian has a growth of order qin]1,d/(d1)[, the solution of the optimization problem is continuous which implies that the problem constraints are qualified. Using this fact and the computation of the subdifferential of a convex functional introduced by Benamou-Brenier, we prove the existence of a solution of the MFG system. In the case where the Hamiltonian has a growth of order qgeqd/(d1), the previous arguments do not apply and we prove the existence by means of an approximation argument.
