We present a comprehensive theory of large non-anonymous games in which agents have a name and a determinate social-type and/or biological trait to resolve the dissonance of a (matching-pennies type) game with an exact pure-strategy Nash equilibrium with finite agents, but without one when...

Since the beginnings of modern economics, economists sought to emulate the revolution in physics initiated by Newton's 'Principia' (1687). Concepts from mechanics have influenced economic models both in terms of methodology and content. The aim of this theoretical paper is to put forward a novel...

Social demand functions result from the budget constrained maximization of “social preferences” or “other regarding preferences.” These preferences are non-selfishin the sense that they also depend on other consumers’ wealth. This paper addresse sthe robustness to wealth externalities...

In his seminal paper on arbitrage and competitive equilibrium in unbounded exchange economies, Werner (Econometrica, 1987) proved the existence of a competitive equilibrium, under a price no-arbitrage condition, without assuming either local or global nonsatiation. Werner's existence result...

Social demand functions result from the budget constrained maximization of "social preferences" or "other regarding preferences." These preferences are non-selfish in the sense that they also depend on other consumers' wealth. This paper addresses the robustness to wealth externalities of the...

The paper considers price adjustment on the plane and derives global stability conditions for such dynamics. First, we examine the well-known Scarf Example, to obtain and analyze a global stability condition for this case. Next, for a general class of excess demand functions, a set of conditions...

As a consequence of the missing global agreement in the fight against Climate Change, several independent emissions trading schemes are coming into operation. From an economic perspective it would be desirable if prices of CO2 emission allowances were the same in each scheme, as this would...

Local interactions refer to social and economic phenomena where individuals' choices are influenced by the choices of others who are 'close' to them socially or geographically. This represents a fairly accurate picture of human experience. Furthermore, since local interactions imply particular...

This paper establishes, in the setting of Brownian information, a general equilibrium existence result in a heterogeneous agent economy. The existence is generic among income distributions. Agents differ moreover in their stochastic differential formulation of intertemporal recursive utility....
