Depuis l'article de Guesnerie (1975), de nombreuses recherches ont ete faites dans le cadre de la theorie de l'equilibre general en economie lorsque le secteur productif presente des rendements croissants ou plus generalement des ensembles de production non convexes. Dans cet article, nous nous...

We give a simple example to the non-existence of duopoly equilibrium in pure strategies in an economy with two goods and two types of consumers.

The purpose of this paper is to study how the equilibrium prices and allocations in a linear exchange economy vary with respect to the intial endowments and utility vectors. We characterize an open dense subject of full measure of the initial endowment and utility vector space on which the...

In a previous paper, Abouda and Chateauneuf proved that for RDEU maximizing MM with non-increasing marginal utility, positivity of the bid-ask spread can be identified with a very weak form of risk aversion SMRA. We perform here a more thorough study of SMRA, firstly in a general setting, and...

In an exchange economy with no aggregate uncertainty, and Bayesian agents, Pareto optimal allocations provide full insurance if and only if the agents have a common prior. It is hard to explain why there is relatively so little betting taking place. One is led to ask, when are full insurance...

We study attitudes towards risk in the Rank Dependent Expected Utility (RDEU) model. This model replaces expected utility by another functional, which is characterised by two functions, a utility function on outcomes in conjunction with a probability-perception function. We use the notion of...

Normative models of behaviour under risk in the framework of expected utility (EU) or under uncertainty in the framework of subjective expected utility (SEU) are very limited. In this survey paper, it is shown that non-expected utility (non-EU) models based on the Choquet integral allow for much...

This paper explores the consequences of non-additive expected utility on risk-sharing and equilibrium in a general equilibrium set-up. We establish that convexity of an agent's preferences (or strong uncertainty aversion) is equivalent to the convexity of his capacity and concavity of his...
