Abstract

In Bayesian mechanism we demonstrate the unicity and the stability of secure reversion protocols in which risk-averse players have no incentive to cheat or to deviate from the meditator’s recommendation and that can greatly improve their equilibrium expected payoffs as compared to those generated through correlation device. The main idea of this work is to show the ease with which we can compute the equilibrium expected payoffs for players. Furthermore, we emphasize those results through a numerical simulation for which the method is able to be used for empirical analysis.
