In contexts in which players have no priors, we analyze a heuristic process based on ex-post regret as a guide to understand how to play games of incomplete information under private values. The conclusions depend on whether players interact within a fixed set (fixed matching) or they are...

When information is hardly available, the role of priors should be limited in robust game-theoretic predictions. We analyze a process of heuristics based on ex-post regret as a guide to understand how to play games of incomplete information with private values. While our dynamics has a strong...

Sortition is the process of selecting decision makers or senators by a lottery. We introduce sortition in implementation theory by augmenting a mechanism with a kleroterion or lottery machine p that selects the senators. An outcome is implemented after consulting only the opinions of the...

We consider collective decision problems given by a profile of single-peaked preferences defined over the real line and a set of pure public facilities to be located on the line. In this context, Bochet and Gordon (2012) provide a large class of priority rules based on efficiency,...

If a positive proportion of traders are naive (i.e., honestly reveal their types and bid/ask truthfully), then efficiency increases in a double auction with preplay communication. Presence of naive traders induces strategic traders to decrease the misrepresentation of their private information.
