Abstract:
In an environment that has at least three players and satisfies Economic, mixed maxmin incentive compatibility and mixed maxmin monotonicity are necessary and sufficient for a social choice set to be fully maxmin implementable in mixed strategies. Our incentive compatibility and monotonicity notions differ from Serrano and Vohra's (2010) Bayesian incentive compatibility and mixed Bayesian monotonicity respectively. It follows that adding ambiguity can make non-implementable social choice sets fully implementable. Also, we present a series of examples to show that under maxmin preferences, our incentive compatibility and monotonicity notions are stronger than the incentive compatibility and monotonicity conditions for full implementation in pure strategies. This confirms the intuition that under maxmin preferences, allowing mixed strategies creates more ways to cheat, and therefore makes full implementation harder.
