Contingent claims with payoffs depending on finitely many asset prices are modeled as elements of a separable Hilbert space. Under fairly general conditions, including market completeness, it is shown that one may change measure to a reference measure under which asset prices are Gaussian and...

This paper provides a theory of general equilibrium with externalities and/or monopoly. We assume that the firm's decisions are based on the preferences of shareholders and/or other stakeholders. Under these assumptions, a firmrm will produce fewer negative externalities than the comparable...

The arbitrage pricing theorem of finance shows that in certain circumstances the price of a financial asset may be written as a linear combination of the prices of certain market factors. This result is usually proved with von Neumann-Morgenstern preferences. In this paper we show that the...

This paper proves the existence of a general equilibrium in a financial model with transaction costs. A general equilibrium is shown to exist in a model with convex trading technology, in which the agents include consumers, production firms, brokers or dealers. When the trading technology is...

Investors in equilibrium are modeled as facing investor specific risks across the space of assets. Personalized asset pricing models reflect these risks. Averaging across the pool of investors we obtain a market asset pricing model that reflects market risk exposures. It is observed on invoking...

Investors in equilibrium are modeled as facing investor specific risk exposures arising from incomplete diversification of personal risks across the space of assets. Personalized asset pricing models reflect these risks. Averaging across the pool of investors we obtain a market asset pricing...

This paper proves the existence of a general equilibrium in a financial model with transaction costs. The general equilibrium is shown to exist in a model with convex trading technology, in which the agents include consumers, production firms, brokers and dealers. When the trading technology is...

This paper studies the optimal risky investment problem with fewer restrictions on utilities, and more structure on risks, than does the current literature. It uses discrete random variables defined on a common domain, hereafter called standardized variables, to obtain new results without...

In this paper we suggest a new interpretation of non-additive probabilities. We study a decision-maker who follows the Savage axioms. We show the if (s)he is able to take unobservable actions which influence the probabilities of outcomes then it can appear to an outsider as if the his/her...

This paper presents a unified framework for examining the general equilibrium effects of transactions costs and trading constraints on security market trades and prices. The model uses a discrete time/state framework and Kuhn-Tucker theory to characterize the optimal decisions of consumers and...
