BAYESIAN PERSUASION WITH PRIVATE EXPERIMENTATION [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, 2017
This article studies a situation in which a sender tries to persuade a receiver by providing hard evidence that is generated by sequential private experimentation where the sender can design the properties of each experiment contingent on the experimentation history.

Bayesian persuasion in unlinked games [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Game Theory, 2021
AbstractOriginating from Kamenica and Gentzkow (Am Econ Rev 101(6):2590–2615, 2011), we analyze multi-receiver Bayesian persuasion games with heterogeneous beliefs without strategic interactions among receivers, which we call unlinked. We show that given the receivers’ best-responses, the sender’s rationalizable strategies are obtained from a single ...

Reaping the Informational Surplus in Bayesian Persuasion [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2020
The Bayesian persuasion model studies communication between an informed sender and a receiver with a payoff-relevant action, emphasizing the ability of a sender to extract maximal surplus from his informational advantage. In this paper, we study a setting with multiple senders in which the receiver is restricted to choosing, at the interim stage, one ...

Prophet Inequalities for Bayesian Persuasion [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Twenty-Ninth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2020
We study an information-structure design problem (i.e., a Bayesian persuasion problem) in an online scenario. Inspired by the classic gambler's problem, consider a set of candidates who arrive sequentially and are evaluated by one agent (the sender). This agent learns the value from hiring the candidate to herself as well as the value to another agent,
