The Ciidae genus Anoplocis was established by Makoto Kawanabe (1996) based on the type species Ennearthron poriae Nakane & Nobuki, 1955 from Japan. Additionally, he described the Japanese species Anoplocis ryukyuensis Kawanabe, 1996. However, the name Anoplocis was previously proposed by Arthur M. Lea (1913) for a genus of true weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), with its type species Anoploci...

Consider a finite exchange economy first as a static, 1 period, economy and then as a repeated economy over T periods when the utility of each agent is the mean utility over T. A family of strategic games is defined via a set of six general properties the most distinct of which is the ability of agents to move commodities forward in time. Now consider Pareto optimal allocations in the T period ...

Shafer (Economelrica 48 (1980), 467476) proved that in a finite exchange economy value allocations exist, provided that each agent has convex, complete, transitive, compact and monotone preferences. However, if preferences are not convex, then value allocations may not exist. To remedy this difficulty we enlarge the set of value allocations by introducing the concept of approximate value alloca...
