六、 报告摘要

We consider the optimal nonlinear pricing by an ambiguity-averse monopolist. The monopolist's subjective belief about the distribution of buyers is described by epsilon-contamination of an additive probability. We find that under a max-min utility decision rule and with a continuum of buyers, ambiguity aversion leads to bunching at the bottom in the optimal contract, and the distortion at the bottom is reduced. Other high valuation buyers are offered the same quantity as in the case without ambiguity, but they get a greater discount.
