world to a set of players who play a coordination game with multiple equilibria. While the Announcer and the players agree … that coordination is desirable, since the payoffs of the players at the equilibria are unequal, they disagree as to which … equilibrium is best. We demonstrate experimentally that in such coordination games, in order to mask the asymmetry of equilibrium …

In this paper we experimentally test a theory of boundedly rational behavior in a lemons market. We analyzed two different market designs, for which perfect rationality implies complete and partial market collapse, respectively. Our empirical observations deviate substantially from these...

We contrast a standard deterministic signaling game with a variant where the signal-generating mechanism is subject to stochastic perturbations. In the theoretical part, we obtain a unique equilibrium with stochastic signals. This equilibrium is separating and has intuitive comparative-static...

We consider an oligopolistic market game, in which the players are competing firm in the same market of a homogeneous consumption good. The consumer side is represented by a fixed demand function. The firms decide how much to produce of a perishable consumption good, and they decide upon a...
