Essays in Game Theory.

T Oh - 2016 - deepblue.lib.umich.edu
I study how to model various strategic interactions with incomplete information and how to
properly analyze them. The first chapter of the dissertation suggests new solution concepts …

Robust game theory

M Aghassi, D Bertsimas - Mathematical programming, 2006 - Springer
We present a distribution-free model of incomplete-information games, both with and without
private information, in which the players use a robust optimization approach to contend with …

An overview of economic applications of David Schmeidler's models of decision making under uncertainty

S Mukerji, JM Tallon - Uncertainty in economic theory, 2004 - taylorfrancis.com
What do ambiguity averse decision makers do when they are not picking balls out of urns—
when they find themselves in contexts that are 'more realistic'in terms of economic …

Nash equilibrium under Knightian uncertainty: breaking down backward induction

J Dow, SRC Werlang - Journal of Economic Theory, 1994 - Elsevier
We define Nash equilibrium for two-person normal-form games in the presence of Knightian
uncertainty. Using the formalization of Schmeidler and Gilboa, we show that Nash …

Non-additive beliefs and strategic equilibria

J Eichberger, D Kelsey - Games and Economic Behavior, 2000 - Elsevier
This paper studies n-player games where players' beliefs about their opponents' behaviour
are modelled as non-additive probabilities. The concept of an “equilibrium under …

Ambiguous games

M Marinacci - Games and Economic Behavior, 2000 - Elsevier
This paper introduces ambiguous games, a modification of the normal form that allows the
presence of vagueness in players' beliefs over the opponents' choice of strategies. An …

Equilibrium in beliefs under uncertainty

KC Lo - Uncertainty in Economic Theory, 2004 - taylorfrancis.com
A rational expectations econometrician or calibrator typically attributes no concern about
specification error to agents even as he shuttles among alternative specifications. 1 Decision …

Ambiguity without a state space

DS Ahn - The Review of Economic Studies, 2008 - academic.oup.com
Many decisions involve both imprecise probabilities and intractable states of the world.
Objective expected utility assumes unambiguous probabilities; subjective expected utility …

" Beliefs about beliefs" without probabilities

LG Epstein, T Wang - Econometrica: Journal of the Econometric Society, 1996 - JSTOR
This paper constructs a space of states of the world representing the exhaustive uncertainty
facing each player in a strategic situation. The innovation is that preferences are restricted …

E-capacities and the Ellsberg paradox

J Eichberger, D Kelsey - Theory and decision, 1999 - Springer
Abstract Ellsberg's (1961) famous paradox shows that decision-makers give events with
'known'probabilities a higher weight in their outcome evaluation. In the same article, Ellsberg …
