1 Robust Predictions in Gmes with Incomplete Informtion Dirk Bergemnn nd Stephen Morris Collegio Crlo Alberto, Turin 16 Mrch 2011
2 Introduction Gme Theoretic Predictions re very sensitive to "higher order beliefs" or (equivlently) informtion structure Higher order beliefs re rrely observed Wht predictions cn we mke nd nlysis cn we do if we do not observe higher order beliefs?
3 Robust Predictions Agend Fix "pyo relevnt environment" = ction sets, pyo -relevnt vribles ("sttes"), pyo functions, distribution over sttes = incomplete informtion gme without higher order beliefs bout sttes Assume pyo relevnt environment is observed by the econometricin Anlyze wht could hppen for ll possible higher order beliefs (mintining common prior ssumption nd equilibrium ssumptions) Mke set vlued predictions bout joint distribution of ctions nd sttes
4 Prtil Identi ction Hving identi ed mpping from "pyo relevnt environment" to ction-stte distributions, we cn nlyze its inverse: Given knowledge of the ction-stte distribution distribution, or some moments of it, wht cn be deduced bout the pyo relevnt environment?
5 Robust Comprtive Sttics / Policy Anlysis Wht cn sy bout the impct of chnges in prmeters of the pyo relevnt environment (for exmple, policy choices) for the set of possible outcomes?
6 Prtil Informtion bout Informtion Structure Perhps you don t observe ll higher order beliefs but you re sure of some spects of the informtion structure: You re sure tht bidders know their privte vlues of n object in n uction, but you hve no ide wht their beliefs nd higher order beliefs bout others privte vlues re... You re sure tht oligopolists know their own costs, but you hve no ide wht beliefs nd higher order beliefs bout demnd nd others privte vlues. Wht cn you sy then?

23 Compre Gossner 00, Lehrer, Rosenberg nd Schmy 06, 10; in Gossner, "more" informtion led to more equilibri
24 Pyo Environment: Qudrtic Pyo s utility of ech gent i is given by qudrtic pyo function: determined by individul ction i 2 R, stte of the world 2 R, nd verge ction A 2 R: nd thus: A = 0 u i ( i ; A; ) = ( i ; A; Z 1 0 i di A A AA A A 1 A ( i ; A; ) T gme is completely described by interction mtrix = ij
25 Pyo Environment: Norml Pyo s the stte of the world is normlly distributed N ; 2 with men 2 R nd vrince 2 2 R + the distribution of the stte of the world is commonly known common prior
26 Interction Mtrix given the interction mtrix, complete informtion gme is potentil gme (Monderer nd Shpley (1996)): 0 A A A A A digonl entries: ; A ; describe own e ects o -digonl entries: ; A ; A interction e ects fundmentls mtter, return shocks : 6= 0; strtegic complements nd strtegic substitutes: A > 0 vs. A < 0 1 A
27 Concve Gme concvity t the individul level (well-de ned best response): < 0 concvity t the ggregte level (existence of n interior equilibrium) + A < 0 concve pyo s imply tht the complete informtion gme hs unique Nsh nd unique correlted equilibrium (Neymn (1997))
28 Exmple 1: Beuty Contest continuum of gents: i 2 [0; 1] ction (= messge): 2 R stte of the world: 2 R pyo function u i = (1 r) ( i ) 2 r ( i A) 2 with r 2 (0; 1) see Morris nd Shin (2002), Angeletos nd Pvn (2007)
29 Exmple 2: Competitive Mrket ction ( = quntity): i 2 R cost of production c ( i ) = 1 2 ( i ) 2 stte of the world ( = demnd intercept): 2 R inverse demnd ( = price): p (A) = A A where A is verge supply: A = Z 1 0 i di see Guesnerie (1992) nd Vives (2008)
30 Stndrd Approch Fix n informtion system 1 every gent i observes public signl y bout : y N ; 2 y 2 every gent i observes privte signl x i bout : x i N ; 2 x
31 Stndrd Approch the best response of ech gent is: = 1 ( E [ jx; y ] + A E [A jx; y ]) suppose the equilibrium strtegy is given by liner function: (x; y) = 0 + x x + y y, denote the sum of the precisions: 2 = 2 + x 2 + y 2
32 Stndrd Approch Theorem The unique Byesin Nsh equilibrium (given the bivrite informtion structure) is liner equilibrium, 0 + x x + y y, with x = 2 x A 2 x + 2 ; nd y = y 2 + A A x 2 + : 2 There is n implied joint distribution of (; A; )
33 Stndrd Approch There is n implied joint distribution of (; A; ) i A 1 00 A A 1 0 A 2 A A A A 2 A A A A A 2 11 AA

35 Given Privte Informtion movements long level curve re vritions in y 2 given x o Correlted Equilibri of beuty contest with miniml precsion of x 2 nd r=.25
36 Byes Correlted Equilibri the object of nlysis: joint distribution over ctions nd sttes: (; A; ) chrcterize the set of (normlly distributed) BCE: i A 1 00 A A 1 0 A 2 A A A A 2 A A A A A 2 2 A is the ggregte voltility (common vrition) 2 2 A is the cross-section dispersion (idiosyncrtic vrition) sttisticl representtion of equilibrium in terms of rst nd second order moments 11 AA
37 Symmetric Byes Correlted Equilibri with focus on symmetric equilibri: A = ; 2 A = 2 ; A A = 2 where is the correltion coe cient cross individul ctions the rst nd second moments of the correlted equilibri re: i 2 2 A A A 2 2 AA 2 correlted equilibri re chrcterized by: f ; ; ; g
38 Equilibrium Anlysis in the complete informtion gme, the best response is: = A A best response is weighted liner combintion of fundmentl nd verge ction A reltive to the cost of ction: = ; A = in the incomplete informtion gme, nd A re uncertin: E [] ; E [A] given the correlted equilibrium distribution (; ) we cn use the conditionl expecttions: E [ j] ; E [A j]
39 Equilibrium Conditions in the incomplete informtion gme, the best response is: = E [ j] E [A j] A best response property hs to hold for ll 2 supp (; ) fortiori, the best response property hs to hold in expecttions over ll : E [] = E E [ j] + E [A j] A by the lw of iterted expecttion, or lw of totl expecttion: E [E [ j]] = ; E [E [A j]] = E [A] = E [] ;
40 Equilibrium Moments: Men the best response property implies tht for ll (; ) : E [] = E E [ j] + E [A j] A or by the lw of iterted expecttion: = A Theorem (First Moment) In ll Byes correlted equilibri, the men ction is given by: E [] = + A : result bout men ction is independent of symmetry or norml distribution
41 Equilibrium Moments: Vrince in ny correlted equilibrium (; ), best response demnds = E [ j] + E [A j] A ; 8 2 supp (; ) or vrying in 1 [ [A A ; the chnge in the conditionl [ [A is sttement bout the correltion between ; A;
42 Equilibrium Moment Restrictions the best response condition nd the condition tht ;A; forms multivrite distribution, mening tht the vrince-covrince mtrix hs to be positive de nite we need to determine: f ; ; g Theorem (Second Moment) The triple ( ; ; ) forms Byes correlted equilibrium i : 2 0; nd = A + :
43 Moment Restrictions: Correltion Coe cients the equilibrium set is chrcterized by inequlity 2 0 : correltion of ctions cross gents; : correltion of ctions nd fundmentl Set of correlted equilibri.
44 Equivlence between BCE nd BNE bivrite informtion structure which genertes voltility (common signl) nd dispersion (idiosyncrtic signl) Theorem There is BCE with ( ; ) if nd only if there is BNE with 2 x ; 2 y. public nd privte signl re su cient to generte the entire set of correlted equilibri... but given BCE does not uniquely identify the informtion environment of BNE
45 Known Miniml Informtion for noise terms = ( x ; y ), write C ( x ; y ) 2 [0; 1] 2 for possible vlues of ( ; ) 1 For ll < 0, C () C ( 0 ) ; 2 For ll 0 : min > min ; 2C () 2C ( 0 ) Proposition For ll 0 : min > min : 2C () 2C ( 0 )
46 Known Miniml Informtion 3 grph x 2.5 y x 2.1 y 2.1 4:pdf Correlted Equilibri of beuty contest with r=.25 nd miniml precsions of x 2 nd y 2 Figure: Set of BCE with given public nd privte informtion
47 Identi ction Exercise 1 suppose only the ctions re observble: ( ; ; ) but the reliztion of the stte is unobservble, nd hence we do not hve ccess to covrite informtion between nd : the identi ction then uses the men: = + A nd vrince = A + :
