conjunctive use of ground and surface water can increase reliability of the water supply by providing independent sources. in this study, corrected utility-efficient pro-gramming that allows for more than one seasonal irrigation depth for each crop was used to determine the amount of utility maximizing investment in the well capacity for conjunctive use. results showed that optimum investment a...

Many insights regarding rank-order tournaments rest upon contestants’ behavior in symmetric equilibria. As shown by Gill and Stone (2010), however, symmetric equilibria may not exist if contestants are expectation-based loss averse and have choice-acclimating expectations. We show that under choice-unacclimating—i.e., fixed— expectations both symmetric and asymmetric equilibria exist for all de...

Two-person noncooperative games with finitely many pure strategies and ordinal preferences over pure outcomes are considered, in which probability distributions resulting from mixed strategies are evaluated according to t-degree stochastic dominance. A t-best reply is a strategy that induces a t-degree stochastically undominated distribution, and a t-equilibrium is a pair of t-best replies. The...

We revisit the well-known result that asserts that an increase in the degree of one’s risk aversion improves the position of one’s opponents. To this end, we apply Yaari’s dual theory of choice under risk both to Nash’s bargaining problem and to Rubinstein’s game of alternating offers. Under this theory, unlike under expected utility, risk aversion influences the bargaining outcome only when th...
