We develop a theory of “risky utilities”, i.e. private firms that manage an infrastructure for public service, and that may be tempted to engage in excessively risky activities, such as reducing maintenance expenditures (at the risk of provoking a break-down of the system) or in speculation...

One of the most well-known models of non-expected utility is Gul (1991)'s model of Disappointment Aversion. This model …, however, is defined implicitly, as the solution to a functional equation; its explicit utility representation is unknown …

The problems of non-concave utility maximization appear in many areas of finance and economics, such as in behavior … economics, incentive schemes, aspiration utility, and goal-reaching problems. Existing literature solves these problems using … the concavification principle. We provide a framework for solving non-concave utility maximization problems, where the …

The mean-variance utility postulates that random variables with the same mean and variance should be equally desirable …-variance utility in which any condition on variances but mean-values is not explicitly specified. Furthermore, we investigate necessary … and sufficient axioms for four types of additively separable forms of mean and variance in the utility representation …
