The Marginal Pricing Rule in Economies with Infinitely Many Commodities
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we consider an economy with infinitely many commodities and non-convex production sets. We propose a definition of the marginal pricing rule which allows us to encompass the case of smooth and convex production sets. We also show the link with the definition used in a finite dimensional setting where the marginal pricing rule is defined by means of the Clarke’s normal cone. We prove the existence of a marginal pricing equilibrium under assumptions similar to the one given for an economy with a finite set of commodities.

Non - Cooperative Asymptotic Oligopoly in Economies with Infinitely Many Commodities ∗
In this paper, we extend the non-cooperative analysis of oligopoly to exchange economies with infinitely many commodities by using strategic market games. This setting can be interpreted as a model of oligopoly with differentiated commodities by using the Hotelling line. We prove the existence of an “active” Cournot-Nash equilibrium and show that, when traders are replicated, the price vector a...
متن کاملOpenness, imported commodities and the Phillips curve
This paper derives a Phillips curve with imported commodities as an additional input in the production process. Given greater reliance on exogenously priced imported commodities in production then changes in output lead to a reduced impact on marginal costs and prices. The Phillips curve becomes atter relative to the benchmark New Keynesian case. Empirical evidence supports the hypothesis that...
متن کاملEquilibrium theory with asymmetric information and with infinitely many commodities
The traditional deterministic general equilibrium theory with infinitely many commodities cannot cover economies with private information constraints on the consumption sets. We bring the level of asymmetric information equilibrium theory at least at par with that of the deterministic. In particular, we establish results on equilibrium existence for exchange economies with asymmetric (different...
متن کاملImplementation of Marginal Cost Pricing Equilibrium Allocations with Transfers in Economies with Increasing Returns to Scale
This paper considers implementation of marginal cost pricing equilibrium allocations with transfers for production economies with increasing returns to scale. We present a mechanism whose Nash equilibrium allocations coincide with the set of marginal cost pricing equilibrium allocations with transfers that characterizes Pareto efficient allocations for economies with non-convex production techn...
متن کاملDeterminacy of Competitive Equilibria in Economies with Many Commodities
This paper provides a framework for establishing the determinacy of equilibria in general equilibrium models with in nitely many commodities and a nite number of consumers and producers. The paper de nes a notion of regular economy for such models and gives su cient conditions on the excess savings equations characterizing equilibria under which regular economies have a nite number of equilibri...
