This passage:

Formally, we can eliminate a particular perfect Bayesian equilibrium by using the Intuitive Criterion if there is some type θ who has a deviation that is assured of yielding him a payoff above his equilibrium payoff as long as other players do not assign a positive probability to the deviation having been made by any type θ for whom this action is equilibrium dominated.

Intuitively, we can eliminate a PBE if there is a type of player who wants to deviate even though he is not sure what the beliefs of other players are. The player is only sure that the other players will not think that he is a player who would find the deviation to be an equilibrium-dominated action.

Is one-to-one from Mas-Colell! I do not know what should be done about it. It is just a remark.78.104.138.107 (talk) 14:23, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]


The link to the Univ of Zurich pdf at the bottom is bad. The author may have been referring to this doc: http://www.iew.uzh.ch/wp/iewwp189.pdf

However, I really do not know. This is not a topic I am familiar with, so I am not competent to change or update the link in this case. Mbuell72 (talk) 17:53, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
