We analyze a continuous-time bargaining game of two-sided incomplete information without time discounting. Consistent with existing results, no trade occurs in the unique equilibrium of this game. Next we assume that players have imperfect information about their types; that is, they do not...

We study dynamic bargaining with uncertainty over the buyer's valuation and the seller's outside option. A long-lived seller makes offers to a long-lived buyer whose value is private information. There may exist a short-lived buyer whose value is higher than that of the long-lived buyer. The...

Decentralized matching markets on the internet allow large numbers of agents to interact anonymously at virtually no cost. Very little information is available to market participants and trade takes place at many different prices simultaneously. We propose a decentralized, completely uncoupled...

I study a discrete-time dynamic bargaining game in which a buyer can choose to learn privately about her value of the good. Information generation takes time and is endogenous. After learning, the buyer can disclose verifiable evidence of her valuation to the seller. Examples include venture...

This paper studies a stability notion and matching processes in the job market with incomplete information on the workers' side. Each worker is associated with a type, and each firm cares about the type of her employee under a match. Moreover, firms' information structure is described by...

We consider a war of attrition with stochastic deadlines in which the players can learn about the state that determines their payoffs at deadline. We study how the players' incentives to acquire information depend on the (un)verifiability of information and what implications these incentives...

When a new asset keeps changing its narrative, investors find difficulty in classifying and understanding the new asset. Rational investors therefore face unprecedented uncertainty and learn about the joint dynamics to optimize their portfolio accordingly. Bitcoin's "digital gold" narrative, as...

The purpose of this paper identifies learning in games in the experimental economic settings, and applies their results on real multilateral trade negotiations. This paper argues that structure of games including a veto player (Veto games) are similar to real multilateral trade negotiations in...

I study the effects of improved public information on equilibrium welfare and price dispersion, providing sufficient conditions for negative and positive effects. Public information affects welfare by reducing excessive (though rational) pessimism induced by sequential learning. Reduced...

We solve for the equilibrium dynamics of information sharing in a large population. Each agent is endowed with signals regarding the likely outcome of a random variable of common concern. Individuals choose the effort with which they search for others from whom they can gather additional...
