چکیده

In this note we investigate the stability of game theoretic and economic solution concepts under input perturbations. The existence of many of these solutions is proved using fixed point theorems. We note that fixed point theorems, in general, do not provide stable solutions, and we show how some commonly studied solution concepts are indeed not stable under perturbation of the inputs.

Control Theory and Economic Policy Optimization: The Origin, Achievements and the Fading Optimism from a Historical Standpoint

Economists were interested in economic stabilization policies as early as the 1930’s but the formal applications of stability theory from the classical control theory to economic analysis appeared in the early 1950’s when a number of control engineers actively collaborated with economists on economic stability and feedback mechanisms. The theory of optimal control resulting from the contributio...

A hybrid method with optimal stability properties for the numerical solution of stiff differential systems

In this paper, we consider the construction of a new class of numerical methods based on the backward differentiation formulas (BDFs) that be equipped by including two off--step points. We represent these methods from general linear methods (GLMs) point of view which provides an easy process to improve their stability properties and implementation in a variable stepsize mode. These superioritie...

Farsighted stability in hedonic games

We investigate how rational individuals partition themselves into di¤erent coalitions in “hedonic games” [see Banerjee, Konishi and Sönmez (1998) and Bogomolnaia and Jackson (2000)],where individuals’ preferences depend solely on the composition of the coalition they belong to. We show that the four solution concepts studied in the literature (core, Nash stability, individual stability and cont...

Stability Modification of SPR Silver Nano-Chips by Alkaline Condensation of Aminopropyltriethoxysilane

The Silver SPR chip was modified by alkaline-silane condensation with aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) in NaOH aqueous solution at different times. Silver sputtered slides coated with APTES were immersed in NaOH solution, enabling us to produce silver surfaces homogeneously covered with APTES. The surface properties of grafted APTES on sputtered silver surface as a occasion of time were studi...

On the stability of equilibrium for a reformulated foreign trade model of three countries

In this paper, we study the stability of equilibrium for a foreign trade model consisting of three countries. As the gravity equation has been proven an excellent tool of analysis and adequately stable over time and space all over the world, we further enhance the problem to three masses. We use the basic Structure of Heckscher–Ohlin–Samuelson model. The national income equals consumption outla...
