  • 演講摘要 : This paper examines the epistemic foundation of iterative admissibility. Brandenburger, Friedenberg, and Keisler [Econometrica 76 (2008), 307-352] propose the notion of rationality and common assumption of rationality (RCAR) to characterize iterative admissibility (IA). We propose a notion of weak assumption and show that rationality and common weak assumption of rationality (RCWAR) is nonempty in a complete, continuous and compact type structure. Moreover, the outcome of RCWAR is IA.
