A global game with strategic substitutes and complements: Comment

Author

  • Hoffmann, Eric J.
  • Sabarwal, Tarun

Abstract

In Karp et al. 2007 an argument is made to show existence of Bayesian-Nash equilibrium in global games that may include both strategic substitutes and complements. This note documents a gap in the proof of that statement
