The Bounded Core of an Overlapping Generations Economy.
The bounded core is the set of allocations that are not improved upon by any bounded set of agents. The authors submit that the bounded core does not serve as a criterion for the efficiency of allocations in an overlapping generations economy, for it may include allocations that are not even short-run Pareto optimal. They also submit that the bounded core is a weak criterion for the robustness of allocations in an overlapping generations economy, for it may not shrink to the set of competitive equilibrium allocations as the individual agents become negligible.
