Efficiency Loss in a Cournot Oligopoly with Convex Market Demand
We consider a Cournot oligopoly model where multiple suppliers (oligopolists) compete by choosing quantities. We compare the social welfare achieved at a Cournot equilibrium to the maximum possible, for the case where the inverse market demand function is convex. We establish a lower bound on the efficiency of Cournot equilibria in terms of a scalar parameter derived from the inverse demand fun...

متن کاملDiversication, Convex Preferences and Non-empty Core 3 Yz
We show, in the Choquet expected utility model, that preference for diversi cation, that is, convex preferences, is equivalent to a concave utility index and a convex capacity. We then introduce a weaker notion of diversi cation, namely \sure diversication." We show that this implies that the core of the capacity is non-empty. The converse holds under concavity of the utility index. This proper...
متن کاملContinuous Mean Demai\jd Functions Derived from Non-convex Preferences*
In this paper we show that for a largsubset of utility functions in the space of all C’ urihty functions and for all prices the mean demand of those consumers whose taste is represented by a given utility function in that subset is uniquely determined. This implies that for a large set of economies mean demand is a continuous function. Our analysis uses derivatives of first and of higher order....
متن کاملEvolution by Non-Convex Functionals
We establish a semi-group solution concept for morphological differential equations, such as the mean curvature flow equation. The proposed method consists in generating flows from generalized minimizers of nonconvex energy functionals. We use relaxation and convexification to define generalized minimizers. The main part of this work consists in verification of the solution concept by comparing...
