We show that concepts introduced by Aumann more than thirty years ago throw a new light on purification in games with extremely dispersed private information. We show that one can embed payoff-irrelevant randomization devices in the private information of players and use these randomization...

We present a result on convexity and weak compactness of the range of a vector measure with values in a Banach space, based on the Maharam classification of measure spaces. Our result extends a recent result of Khan and Sagara [Illinois Journal of Mathematics, forthcoming].
