belief-based refinements in signalling games
Article Abstract:
A refinement of undefeated equilibria avoids the problems posed by sequential equilibria that limit the usefulness of games of incomplete information, and an existence theorem on signalling games is provided. Difficulties in implementing the concept of forward induction are explained. The set of undefeated equilibria in continuous strategy set signalling games is shown to be non-empty, and proofs are presented.
