Divine equilibrium

The Divinity Criterion or Divine Equilibrium or Universal Divinity or D1-Criterion is a restriction in Game Theory of receiver's beliefs to the type of senders for whom deviating towards an off-the-equilibrium message could improve his outcome compared to the equilibrium payoff. [1] In addition to the restriction suggested by the Intuitive Criterion the Divinity Criterion considers only those types which are most likely to send the off-the-equilibrium message.

If more than one sender could benefit from the deviation the Intuition Criterion assigns equal probabilities for all the senders, whereas the D1-Criterion considers different probabilities.
