This paper performs a welfare analysis of economies with private information when public information is endogenously generated and agents can condition on noisy public statistics in the rational expectations tradition. We find that equilibrium is not (restricted) efficient even when feasible...

An information-theoretic thought experiment is developed to clarify why the maximum entropy methodology is appropriate … enables the use of maximum entropy to make predictions concerning the equilibrium state. Finally an illustration of this … predictive power is provided through an application to the Schelling model of segregation. -- Information entropy ; knapsack …
