Agreeing to agree with uncountable information structures

Author

Listed:
  • Xiong, Siyang

Abstract

Given the regularity condition on posteriors proposed in Lehrer and Samet (2011), we show that Lehrer and Sametʼs (2011) characterization of agreeing to agree in countable-information models cannot be extended to uncountable-information models. This answers an open question raised in Lehrer and Samet (2011).
