We propose an Aitken estimator for Gini regression. The suggested A -Gini estimator is proven to be a U-statistics. Monte Carlo simulations are provided to deal with heteroskedasticity and to make some comparisons between the generalized least squares and the Gini regression. A Gini-White test...

The paper explores different applications of the Shapley value for either inequality or poverty measures. We first investigate the problem of source decomposition of inequality measures, the so-called additive income sources inequality games, baed on the Shapley Value, introduced by Chantreuil...

Data contamination and excessive correlations between regressors (multicollinearity) constitute a standard and major problem in econometrics. Two techniques enable solving these problems, in separate ways: the Gini regression for the former, and the PLS (partial least squares) regression for the...

L’économie des inégalités est une partie non négligeable de l’économie publique et du domaine de la justice sociale. Pour apprécier l’efficacité d’un principe de justice sociale (commutative, distributive, locale, etc.), les mesures d’inégalité sont souvent utilisées. Elles...

In this paper, we investigate a dual class of bi-polarization indices, namely rank-dependent bi-polarization indices. We show that these indices may be characterized with the generalized positional transfer sensitivity property. We find necessary and sufficient conditions in order to identify...
