Implementation in Economies with Non-Convex Production
This paper deals with the problem of incentive mechanism design in non-convex production economies when production sets and preferences both are unknown to the designer. We consider Nash-implementation of loss-free, average cost, marginal cost, voluntary trading, and quantity-taking pricing equilibrium allocations in economies involving increasing returns to scale or more general types of non-c...
متن کاملEquity and efficiency in non-convex economies
The objective of this paper is to consider the following question. Does the presence of increasing returns introduce a fundamental trade-off between equity and efficiency objectives? We show that if the no-envy notion of Foley (1967) is taken as the equity criterion and Pareto optimality as the efficiency criterion, then the answer is yes; there exist economies with increasing returns and well-...
متن کاملOn Approximate Cores of Non-convex Economies
The existence of approximate equilibria for exchange economies whose agents have non-convex preferences was established by Starr (1969). For a stronger concept of approximate equilibria the existence result was obtained by Hildenbrand, Schmeidler and Zamir (1973) (HSZ hereafter). Moreover, it was shown in HSZ, that the approximation can be made as good as one likes by choosing the number of age...

This paper deals with the problem of incentive mechanism design in non-convex production economies when production sets and preferences both are unknown to the designer.

متن کاملIndeterminacy and the Stability Puzzle in Non-Convex Economies
We examine stability under learning of sunspot equilibria in Real Business Cycle type models with indeterminacies. Our analysis emphasizes the importance of examining alternative representations of sunspot solutions. A general bivariate reduced form contains parameter regions in which sunspots are stable under learning. However, for parameters restricted to those generated by standard models of...
