Overlapping sets of priors and the existence of efficient allocations and equilibria for risk measures
نویسندگان
چکیده
The overlapping expectations and the collective absence of arbitrage conditions introduced in the economic literature to insure existence of Pareto optima and equilibria with short-selling when investors have a single belief about future returns, is reconsidered. Investors use measures of risk. The overlapping sets of priors and the Pareto equilibrium conditions introduced by Heath and Ku for coherent risk measures are respectively reinterpreted as a weak no-arbitrage and a weak collective absence of arbitrage conditions and shown to imply existence of Pareto optima and Arrow Debreu equilibria.

Intertemporal equilibria with Knightian uncertainty
We study a dynamic and infinite–dimensional model with Knightian uncertainty modeled by incomplete multiple prior preferences. In interior efficient allocations, agents share a common risk–adjusted prior and use the same subjective interest rate. Interior efficient allocations and equilibria coincide with those of economies with subjective expected utility and priors from the agents’ multiple p...
متن کاملEfficient allocations and equilibria with short-selling and incomplete preferences
This article reconsiders the theory of existence of efficient allocations and equilibria when consumption sets are unbounded below under the assumption that agents have incomplete preferences. It is motivated by an example in the theory of assets with short-selling where there is risk and ambiguity. Agents have Bewley’s incomplete preferences. As an inertia principle is assumed in markets, equi...
متن کاملThe possibility of efficient provision of a public good in voluntary participation games
In this study, we provide the conditions for efficient provision of a public good in a participation game in which the public good is provided in units of non-negative integers. In the case in which at most one unit of the public good can be provided, we provide refinements of Nash equilibria at which agents choose only the Nash equilibrium with efficient allocations and provide sufficient cond...
متن کاملRadner Equilibria under Ambiguous Volatility
The present paper considers a class of general equilibrium economies when the primitive uncertainty model features uncertainty about continuous-time volatility. This requires a set of mutually singular priors, which do not share the same null sets. For this setting we introduce an appropriate commodity space and the dual of linear and continuous price systems. All agents in the economy are hete...
متن کاملBayesian Sample size Determination for Longitudinal Studies with Continuous Response using Marginal Models
Introduction Longitudinal study designs are common in a lot of scientific researches, especially in medical, social and economic sciences. The reason is that longitudinal studies allow researchers to measure changes of each individual over time and often have higher statistical power than cross-sectional studies. Choosing an appropriate sample size is a crucial step in a successful study. A st...
