(weak) Calibration is Computationally Hard

Abstract

We show that the existence of a computationally efficient calibration algorithm, with a low weak calibration rate, would imply the existence of an efficient algorithm for computing approximate Nash equilibria – thus implying the unlikely conclusion that every problem in \emphPPAD is solvable in polynomial time.
