We review some of the (theoretical) economic implications of David Schmeidler's models of decision under uncertainty … (Choquet expected utility and maxmin expected utility) in competitive market settings. We start with the portfolio inertia … equilibrium implications (indeterminacies, non revelation of information) of these decision models. A section is then devoted to …

Anscombe and Aumann (1963) offer a definition of subjective probability in terms of comparisons with objective probabilities. That definition - which has provided the basis for much of the succeeding work on subjective probability - presumes that the subjective probability of an event is...
