This paper develops a model with multiple steady states (low tax and unemployment rate versus high tax and unemployment rate) in which equilibrium selection is not conditioned on a sunspot variable. Instead, large enough shocks initiate unavoidable transitions from one regime to the other. The...

Stable matchings in the presence of complementarities need not exist. With a canonical form of payoff functions, the conventional sufficient condition for existence substantially restricts the range of pairwise complementarity/substitutability values. This paper provides a new sufficient...

Using differential games, this paper analyzes output controls of internationally shared renewable resources such as transboundary natural forests. A two-country, two-good (that is, shared-resource and nonresource based goods) general equilibrium trading model is employed for this purpose. Each...

We complement the Sonnenschein-Mantel-Debreu results by establishing that an exchange economy, i.e., preferences and endowments, that generates a given aggregate excess demand (AED) function is close to the economy that generates a perturbation of this AED. As a consequence, genericity and...

This chapter reviews the theory of the voluntary public and private redistribution of wealth elaborated by economic … analysis in the last forty years or so. The central object of the theory is altruistic gift-giving, construed as benevolent … voluntary redistribution of income or wealth. The theory concentrates on lump-sum voluntary transfers, individual or collective …

We discover that letting agents pairwise sequentially exchange at "wrong" prices has a robust effect on prices at convergence. If the initial relative price for a good is cheaper than the equilibrium walrasian price due to initial endowments, the initial excess demand effect pushes resource...

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....

In this paper, I construct a model of an exchange economy in which bankruptcy arises in a manner similar to what we observe. This model is a more realistic representation of some markets in which intertemporal assets are traded. Using standard and natural assumptions, I show that every economy...

The present paper makes a contribution to fill in a gap left open by dynamic theory and evolutionary economics as well …. While the "closed loop" dynamic theory has explanation power in analyzing evolving economic systems at the price of …
