Folk theorem with communication

This paper proves a new folk theorem for repeated games with private monitoring and communication, extending the idea of delayed communication in Compte O. Compte, Communication in repeated games with imperfect private monitoring, Econometrica 66 (1998) 597-626] to the case where private signals are correlated.The sufficient condition for the folk theorem is generically satisfied with more than two players, even when other well-known conditions are not. The folk theorem also applies to some two-players repeated games.
