We axiomatize a new class of recursive dynamic models that capture subjective constraints on the amount of information a decision maker can obtain, pay attention to, or absorb, via a Markov Decision Process for Information Choice (MIC). An MIC is a subjective decision process that specifies what...

Antitrust authorities view the exchange of detailed information among firms regarding costs, prices or sales as being potentially anti-competitive. The reason is that such exchanges may allow competitors to closely monitor each other, thereby facilitating greater coordination. But the exchange...
