In this paper, we study a pure exchange economy with idiosyncratic uncertainty, hidden action and multiple consumption goods. We consider two different market structures: contingent markets on the one hand, and financial and spot markets on the other hand. We propose a competitive equilibrium...

We study global properties of the equilibrium set of economies with a continuous consumption space. This framework is important in intertemporal allocation problems (continuous or infinite time), financial markets with uncertainty (continuous states of nature) and commodity differentiation. We...

For an exchange economy, under assumptions which did not bring about the existence of equilibrium with dividends as yet, we prove the non-emptiness of the fuzzy rejective core. Then, via Konovalov (1998, 2005)'s equivalence result, we solve the equilibrium with dividends existence problem....

A stumbling block in the modelling of competitive markets with commodity and price spaces of infinite dimensions, arises from having positive cones with an empty interior. This issue precludes the use of tools of differential analysis, ranging from the definition of a derivative, to the use of...

The standard Walrasian equilibrium theory requires that the marginal value product of production factor such as labor is equal across firms and industries. However, productivity dispersion is widely observed in the real economy. Search theory allegedly fills this gap by encompassing apparent...

When demands and supplies are uncertain, given the prices, equilibrium cannot be defined by equating them. New equilibria are then formed on modeling markets as the abstract risk taking agent. The theory of acceptable risks is applied to redefine economic equilibrium. The market sets two prices...

This article provides a simple account of the effect of quality competition on the extent of sequential entry accommodation for a differentiated oligopoly market characterized by locational differentiation. The model is solved with consumers seeking a “love for quality” surplus utility while...
