We provide conditions that simplify applying Reny's (1999) better‐reply security to Bayesian
games and use these conditions to prove the existence of equilibria for classes of games in …

We consider first-price auctions with independent and private valuations that have
asymmetric valuation distributions and supports. We first show the existence of equilibrium …

This paper investigates the existence of a nondegenerate pure-strategy Bayesian-Nash
equilibrium in a double auction between one seller and several heterogeneous buyers in …

We introduce a new approach to studying the existence of a monotone pure-strategy
Bayesian-Nash equilibrium in an n-player single-prize contest model that covers both …

This paper studies Bayesian games with general action spaces, correlated types and
interdependent payoffs. We introduce the condition of``decomposable coarser payoff …

We prove for a large class of stochastic games with discontinuous payoffs, a stationary
Markov perfect equilibrium exists under the condition of “continuation payoff security.” This …

This paper presents new results on the existence of Bayesian equilibria in pure strategies of
a specified functional form. These results broaden the scope of methods developed by Reny …

The notion of communication equilibrium extends Aumann's (J Math Econ 1: 67–96, 1974,
https://doi. org/10.1016/0304-4068 (74) 90037-8) correlated equilibrium concept for …

This paper extends Selten's (Int J Game Theory 4: 25–55, 1975) notion of perfection to
normal-form games of incomplete information and provides conditions on the primitives of a …
