Applying unawareness belief structures introduced in Heifetz, Meier, and Schipper (2013a), we develop Bayesian games with unawareness, define equilibrium, and prove existence. We show how equilibria are extended naturally from lower to higher awareness levels and restricted from higher to lower...

We define a generalized state-space model with interactive unawareness and probabilistic beliefs. Such models are desirable for many potential applications of asymmetric unawareness. We develop Bayesian games with unawareness, define equilibrium, and prove existence. We show how equilibria are...

We study settings in which, prior to playing an incomplete information game, players observe many draws of private … signals about the state from some information structure. Signals are i.i.d. across draws, but may display arbitrary … correlation across players. For each information structure, we define a simple learning efficiency index, which only considers the …

Under what conditions can cooperation be sustained in a network of strangers? Here we study the role of institutions and uncover a new behavioral foundation for the use of monetary systems. In an experiment, anonymous subjects could cooperate or defect in bilateral random encounters. This...

This study discusses the convergence to a solution in simultaneous-move games with unawareness. Since games with unawareness assume players' unawareness of actions, in some plays, players might revise their subjective views when they observe opponents' play, which they were unaware of. Recently,...
