Hedonic price equilibria, stable matching, and optimal transport: Equivalence, topology, and uniqueness
Chiappori, Pierre-André; McCann, Robert J.; Nesheim, Lars - 2007
Hedonic pricing with quasilinear preferences is shown to be equivalent to stable matching with transferable utilities and a participation constraint, and to an optimal transportation (Monge-Kantorovich) linear programming problem. Optimal assignments in the latter correspond to stable matchings,...

A good sign for multivariate risk taking
Eeckhoudt, Louis; Rey, Béatrice; Schlesinger, Harris - 2006
Decisions under risk are often multidimensional, where the preferences of the decision maker depend on several attributes. For example, an individual might be concerned about both her level of wealth and the condition of her health. Many times the signs of successive cross derivatives of a...
