Abstract

If a solution (on a closed [exp.2] family of games) satisfies dummy axiom (DUM) and independence of irrelevant strategies (lIS) then it also satisfies consistency (CONS) (proposition 2.21, Peleg and Tijs, 1996). The converse of this proposition is not true: CONS implies neither DUM nor lIS as shown in two simple examples, using coalition- proof Nash equilibrium. However, CONS implies weak dummy axiom (WDUM) which can replace DUM in the above proposition.
