In this paper, we show that behavioral features can be obtained at a group level when the individuals of the group are heterogeneous enough. Starting from a standard model of Pareto optimal allocations, with expected utility maximizers and exponential discounting, but allowing for heterogeneity...

We analyze a model with two types of agents: standard agents and gurus, i.e. agents who have the ability to influence the other investors. Gurus announce their beliefs and act accordingly. Gurus are strategic: they take into account the impact of their announced beliefs on the other agents,...

In this paper, we show that behavioral features can be obtained at a group level when the individuals of the group are heterogeneous enough. Starting from a standard model of Pareto optimal allocations, with expected utility maximizers and exponential discounting, but allowing for heterogeneity...

This paper presents an equilibrium model in a pure exchange economy when investors have three possible sources of heterogeneity. Investors may differ in their beliefs, in their level of risk aversion and in their time preference rate. We study the impact of investors heterogeneity on the...

We study the deterministic optimization problem of a profit-maximizing firm which plans its sales/production schedule. The Firm knows the revenue associated to a given level of sales, as well as its production and storage costs. The revenue and the production cost are assumed to be,...

In this article, we characterize efficient contingent claims in a context of transaction costs and multidimensional utility functions. The dual formulation of utility maximization helps us outline the key notion of cyclic anticomonotonicity. Moreover, after defining a utility price in this...

In this article, we characterize efficient portfolios, i.e. portfolios which are optimal for at least one rational agent, in a very general financial market model of foreign currencies with proportional transaction costs. In our setting, transaction costs may be random, time-dependant, have...

We develop a general equilibrium model of interest rates based on a continuous-time production economy populated by heterogeneous shareholders with logarithmic preferences. It allows us to study the impact of belief heterogeneity on bonds, the risk-free rate, and the yield curve. In particular,...
