چکیده

We analyze the ex ante incentive compatible core for replicated private information economies. We show that any allocation in the core when the economy is replicated sufficiently often is approximately Walrasian for the associated Arrow–Debreu economy.  2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

On the Failure of Core Convergence in Economies with Asymmetric Information

In interim economies with asymmetric information, we show that the coarse core of Wilson (1978) does not converge to price equilibrium allocations as the economy is replicated. This failure of core convergence is a basic consequence of asymmetric information and extends to any reasonable notion of either (interim) core or price equilibrium. JEL Classification: C71, D51

Information Transmission and Core Convergence in Quasilinear Economies ∗

We study core convergence in interim quasilinear economies with asymmetric information, concentrating on core notions in which information is transmitted endogenously within coalitions and the incentive constraints are relevant. Specifically, we shall focus on the credible core and randomized mediated core concepts. We consider independent replicas of the basic economy: independent copies of th...

Incentives and the core of an exchange economy: a survey

This paper provides a general overview of the literature on the core of an exchange economy with asymmetric information. Incentive compatibility is emphasized in studying core concepts at the ex ante and interim stage. The analysis includes issues of non-emptiness of the core as well as core convergence to price equilibrium allocations. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. JEL clas...

On the Failure O F Core Convergence in Economies with Asymmetric Information

THE AIM OF THIS PAPER is to study core convergence in economies with asymmetric information. We will argue that the positive results of Debreu and Scarf (1963) and Aumann (1964) do not extend to a model with incomplete information in which decisions are made at the interim stage.2 Consider first the case in which decisions are made at the ex-ante stage, i.e., before information is revealed to a...
