One-Shot Public Mediated Talk

Abstract

We show that any correlation device with rational coefficients can be generated by a mechanism where each player sends a private message to a mediator who in turn makes a public deterministic announcement. Moreover, the mechanism suggested is immunized against individual deviations.
