We evaluate the impact of three proposed regulations of transportation network companies (TNCs) like Uber, Lyft and Didi: (1) a minimum wage for drivers, (2) a cap on the number of…
A Unified Approach to Dynamic Decision Problems with Asymmetric Information - Part II: Strategic Agents
Hamidreza Tavafoghi, Yi Ouyang, Demosthenis Teneketzis
We study a general class of dynamic games with asymmetric information where agents' beliefs are strategy dependent, i.e. signaling occurs. We show that the notion of sufficient inf…
A Unified Approach to Dynamic Decision Problems with Asymmetric Information - Part I: Non-Strategic Agents
Hamidreza Tavafoghi, Yi Ouyang, Demosthenis Teneketzis
We study a general class of dynamic multi-agent decision problems with asymmetric information and non-strategic agents, which includes dynamic teams as a special case. When agents…
