We consider a model of third-degree price discrimination, in which the seller has a valuation for the product which is unknown to the market designer, who aims to maximize the buyers' surplus by revealing information regarding the buyer's valuation to the seller.

We consider a model of Bayesian persuasion with one informed sender and several uninformed receivers.

The payoff of the senders and of the receiver depend on both the state of the world and the action selected by the receiver.

We study the robustness of cheap-talk equilibria to infinitesimal private information of the receiver in a model with a binary state-space and state-independent sender-preferences.

In a misspecified social learning setting, agents are condescending if they perceive their peers as having private information that is of lower quality than it is in reality.

For one mediator, the characterization has a geometric meaning of constrained concavification of sender's utility, optimal persuasion requires the same number of signals as without mediators, and the presence of the mediator is never profitable for the sender.

We study a model of opinion exchange in social networks where a state of the world is realized and every agent receives a zero-mean noisy signal of the realized state.

We analyze boundedly rational updating from aggregate statistics in a model with binary actions and binary states.

We illustrate the power of the local learning requirement by constructing a family of social networks that guarantee information aggregation despite that no agent is a social hub (in other words, there are no opinion leaders).

We study the set of possible joint posterior belief distributions of a group of agents who share a common prior regarding a binary state, and who observe some information structure.
