Unawareness and strategic announcements in games with uncertainty

This paper studies games with uncertainty where players have different awareness regarding a chance player’s moves (contingencies). An announcer, who is fully aware of the contingencies, can announce some of them to an unaware decision maker (DM) before the DM takes an action. An equilibrium concept and a refinement is introduced to study the way the DM generates her belief on her extended awareness. JEL-Codes: C72, D82, D83
