We provide a set of new models of three different processes by which political parties
nominate candidates for a general election: nominations by party leaders, nominations by a
vote of party members, and nominations by a spending competition among potential ...

Abstract I provide a new proof of uniqueness of equilibrium in a wide class of global games. I
show that the joint best-response in these games is a contraction. The uniqueness result
then follows as a corollary of the contraction principle. Furthermore, the contraction- ...

ABSTRACT. We study the design of mechanisms that implement Lindahl or Walrasian
allocations and whose Nash equilibria are dynamically stable for a wide class of adaptive
dynamics. We argue that supermodularity is not a desirable stability criterion in this ...

This paper introduces a mechanism design approach that allows dealing with the multiple
equilibrium problem, using mechanisms that are robust to bounded rationality. This
approach is a tool for constructing supermodular mechanisms, ie, mechanisms that induce ...

Sentiments are characteristics of players' beliefs. I propose two notions of sentiments,
confidence and optimism, and I study their role in shaping the set of rationalizable strategy
profiles in (incomplete information) games with complementarities. Confidence is related ...

We propose two characteristics of players' beliefs and study their role in shaping the set of
rationalizable strategy profiles in games with incomplete information. The first characteristic,
type-sensitivity, is related to how informative a player thinks his type is. The second ...

Abstract We study the impact of frictions on the prevalence of systemic crises. Agents
privately learn about a fixed payoff parameter, and repeatedly adjust their investments while
facing transaction costs in a dynamic global game. The model has a rich structure of ...

Abstract We study a dynamic global game with frictions in which agents privately learn about
a fixed payoff parameter and repeatedly adjust their investment positions. The model has a
rich structure of externalities: payoffs may depend on the volume of aggregate investment, ...

ABSTRACT. This paper proposes an axiomatic approach to study two-player infinitely
repeated games. A solution is a correspondence that maps the set of stage games into the
set of infinite sequences of action profiles. We suggest that a solution should satisfy two ...

Abstract This paper studies supermodular mechanism design in environments with arbitrary
(finite) type spaces and interdependent valuations. In these environments, the designer
often has to use Bayesian equilibrium as a solution concept, since ex post implementation ...

This paper proposes an axiomatic approach to study two-player infinitely repeated games. A
solution is a correspondence that maps the set of stage games into the set of infinite
sequences of action profiles. We suggest that a solution should satisfy two simple axioms: ...
