We will introduce some of the mat hematical models which have been used by game theo rists to represent this uncertainty. The talk will focus on type spaces, introduced by John Harsanyi in 1967. In particular, we will disucss the exist ence of a "universal" type space and the epistemic foundations of various solution concepts. To that end, the talk will be based on a recent survey by Adam Brandenburger which can be found below: http ://pages.stern.nyu.edu/%7Eabranden/pop-09-29-05.pd f For more information, please contact Ulle Endr iss (ulle at illc.uva.nl).
