چکیده

We consider economies with many agents and compare the competitive equilibria and the value allocations of the resultingcoalitional games. In particular, we provide a (smooth and robust) example where the “value principle” does not hold for the HarsanyiNTU-value: there is a unique competitive equilibrium,which however does notbelong tothe (nonempty) set of Harsanyi value allocations.

Financial Economics I Lecture Notes on : Competitive Markets for Insurance

Do competitive insurance markets function orderly in the presence of moral hazard and adverse selection? What are the properties of allocations attainable as competitive equilibria of such economies? And in particular, are competitive equilibria incentive efficient? The fundamental contribution on competitive markets for insurance contracts is Prescott and Townsend (1984). They analyze Walrasia...

A Note on the Convergence to Competitive Equilibria in Economies with Moral Hazard

We examine the conditions under which competitive equilibria can be obtained as the limit, when the number of strategic traders gets large, of Nash equilibria in economies with asymmetric information on agents' e ort and possibly imperfect observability of agents' trades. Convergence always occur when either e ort is publicly observed (no matter what is the information available to intermediari...

DYNAMIC COMPLEXITY OF A THREE SPECIES COMPETITIVE FOOD CHAIN MODEL WITH INTER AND INTRA SPECIFIC COMPETITIONS

The present article deals with the inter specific competition and intra-specific competition among predator populations of a prey-dependent three component food chain model consisting of two competitive predator sharing one prey species as their food. The behaviour of the system near the biologically feasible equilibria is thoroughly analyzed. Boundedness and dissipativeness of the system are e...

Nash - walras equilibria of a large economy 1 2

Individuals exchange contracts for the delivery of commodities in competitive markets and, simultaneously, act strategically; actions affect utilities across individuals directly or through the payoffs of contracts. This encompasses economies with asymmetric information. Nash walras equilibria exist for large economies, even if utility functions are not quasi concave and choice sets are not con...

Determinacy 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...
