Talk:Rationalizability

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The article showed only two rationalizable pure strategies for the matching pennies game. I changed it to state that all the pure strategies are rationalizable, which I believe to be correct.

I also added a note about the iterated elimination of strategies that are never the best response yielding the set of rationalizable strategies. I found this fact in a set of lecture notes on the web [1], which I added to the References section. (I felt it needed at least one online reference.)

The articles on dominance and best response should probably have links to each other and to this article. I haven't added these yet.

Yeah, reading over the page again, I should have been more careful to distinguish between rationalizable strategies and rationalizable equilibria. I'm going to add the formal mathematical definition in the next few days, and when I do that I'll try to be sure that distinction is mentioned and consistently employed. Thanks for the addition! --best, kevin ···Kzollman | Talk··· 19:28, September 1, 2005 (UTC)

There is not really a definition in the article. I don't know where to find and include one. --Janlo (talk) 15:16, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Added a definition. Will try to add more detail soon. I work in game theory. J-weinstein77 (talk) 22:13, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
