An Example 1.1 Complete Information Static Game 1.2 Complete Information Repeated Game

In the last lecture, we saw an example of reputation analysis in repeated interaction (a sequential entry game) with one long-lived player and many short-lived players, where the short-lived players are unsure of the long-lived player’s type. In this lecture, we generalize that analysis by giving an overview of the key results on reputation in repeated games with one long-lived player and many short-lived players. Our development draws on Chapter 15 of the book by Mailath and Samuelson [5].
