Factor Demand Functions for Constant Returns to Scale Technologies

Characterizing and finding full dimensional efficient facets of PPS with constant returns to scale technology

An input-oriented radial measure for returns to scale aggregation.

In production theory, it is necessary to be capable of predicting the production func- tion’s long-run behaviors. Hereof, returns to scale is a helpful concept. Returns to scale describes the reaction of a production function to the proportionally scaling all its input variables. In this regard, Data envelopment analysis (DEA) provides a com- prehensive framework for returns to scale evaluation...

Constant and variable returns to scale DEA models for socially responsible investment funds

In order to evaluate the performance of socially responsible investment (SRI) funds, we propose some models which use data envelopment analysis and can be computed in all phases of the business cycle. These models focus on the most crucial elements of an investment in mutual funds. In the literature both constant and variable returns to scale DEA models have been used to evaluate the performanc...
