Privately Observed Time Horizons in Repeated Games

Working Papers from Toulouse - GREMAQ

Abstract: This paper considers the repetition of a finite two person game when each player knows an upper bound on the length of the game, but assigns a positive probability to his opponent overestimating the length of the game. It is shown that with sufficiently little discounting, any payoff vector that strictly Pareto dominates that of a Nash equilibrium of the constituent game can be sustained in a Perfect Bayesian Equilibrium if the number of periods remaining is sufficiently large.
