To identify all decision relevant information in a game context we must in principle specify an infinite sequence oflst,2nd,3rd, ... order beliefs. Mertens and Zamir(1985) model this hierarchy of beliefs and construct the so-called universal belief sets generated by the basic domain of uncertainty 8 that suffices to specify all these beliefs. They show that there exists a Bayesian model with type sets that are large enough to specify all relevant uncertainties. Still, to get a tractable model, we must in general restrict the beliefs to some small subset of these universal belief sets.
20 Part 1: Introduction associated with private information and private actions. Furthermore, it allows us to delineate the planning schemes that are viable in the sense of being sustained by non-cooperative behavior. We also review some recent results on implementation of social choice rules in such contexts. Chapter 2 is by and large an introduction to some important literature. In chapter 3, we investigate how the organization of communication and choice affects the possibility to implement social choice functions.
T. e. use a Rawlsian type of welfare measure An alternative approach that is often used to select or characterize an efficient scheme is to maximize the utility of one agent, say agent i, subject to minimum constraints, say Ej' j .. i, on the other agents' utilities, ie. t.
