In 1987, the Brundtland Commission famously defined sustainable development as “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the needs of the future”. This paper is concerned with translating this definition in the framework of the neoclassical one-sector model of...

The interdependency of socio-ecological systems and the increased reach of human activity have led to major political and scientific challenges in the governance of environmental resources. This chapter reviews the state of our knowledge on the matter. The chapter begins by discussing the...

Vulnerability–resilience indexes fail to grasp all dimensions of sustainability, whereas sustainable development has … gained momentum. We fill this gap with a hierarchical multimetric composite index (Net Vulnerability Resilience Index: NVRI … vulnerability and resilience are policy-responsive and that (ii) there is no determinism for a country to remain vulnerable or …

The theory of existence of equilibrium with short-selling is reconsidered under risk and ambiguity modelled by risk averse variational preferences. A sufficient condition for existence of efficient allocations is that the relative interiors of the risk adjusted sets of expectations overlap. This...

We apply set valued analysis techniques in order to characterize the input-to-state dynamical stability (ISDS) property, a variant of the well known input-to-state stability (ISS) property. Using a suitable augmented differential inclusion we are able to characterize the epigraphs of minimal...

In this paper we study some foundational issues in the theory of asset pricing with market frictions. We model market frictions by letting the set of marketed contingent claims (the opportunity set) be a convex set, and the pricing rule at which these claims are available be convex. This is the...

We consider an exchange economy under incomplete financial markets with purely financial securities and finitely many agents. When portfolios are not constrained Cass [4], Duffie [7] and Florenzano–Gourdel [12] proved that arbitrage-free security prices fully characterize equilibrium security...

We prove the non-emptiness of the core of an NTU game satisfying a condition of payoff-dependent balancedness, based on transfer rate mappings. We also define a new equilibrium condition on transfer rates and we prove the existence of core payoff vectors satisfying this condition. The additional...

We consider exchange economies with a measure space of agents and for which the commodity space is a separable and reflexive Banach lattice. Under assumptions imposing uniform bounds on marginal rates of substitution, positive results on core-Walras equivalence were established in...

We are given a list of tasks Z and a population divided into several groups X j of equal size. Performing one task z requires constituting a team with exactly one member x j from every group. There is a cost (or reward) for participation: if type x j chooses task z, he receives p j (z);...
