p-Best response set and the robustness of equilibria to incomplete information

Author

  • Tercieux, Olivier

Abstract

In this paper, we use p-best response sets--a set-valued extension of p-dominance--in order to provide a new sufficient condition for the robustness of equilibria to incomplete information.
