  • 演講摘要 : Within the context of strategic interaction, we provide a unified framework for analyzing information, knowledge, and the "stable" pattern of behavior. The major innovations are: (i) unlike the standard ad hoc semantic model of knowledge, the state space is constructed by Harsanyi's types that were explicitly formulated by Epstein and Wang (Econometrica 64, 1996, 1343-1373); (ii) players may be boundedly rational and have non-partitional information structures; and (iii) players may have general preferences, including subjective expected utility and non-expected utility. We first study the interactive epistemology. We then establish an equivalence theorem between a strictly dominated strategy and a never-best reply in terms of epistemic states. Finally, we explore epistemic foundations behind the fascinating idea of stability due to J. von Neumann and O. Morgenstern。
