چکیده

We address the issue of existence of an allocation rule that satis es both Pareto e ciency and a suitable notion of no-envy in the overlapping generations' economy formulated by Samuelson (1958). Recent contributions to dynamic social welfare analysis have insisted on intergenerational equity by comparing in nite horizon utility streams (see among others Fleurbaey and Michel 2003; Basu and Mitra 2003; Bossert, Sprumont and Suzumura 2007); in contrast to this literature, we will not assume any preference comparability nor the existence of an in nite living representative agent, our approach aims at nding and analysing extensions of static allocation rules to a simple dynamic overlapping generation model.

Investigating the risk-taking behavior of the banking industry in the form of the general equilibrium model of overlapping generations (OLG)

In this paper, using a general equilibrium model of overlapping generations, the impact of different financing plans of the banking industry on their risk-taking motivation is investigated. In the non-competitive banking industry, financing is done by imposing taxes on the older generation or the bankchr('39')s internal resources (bank shares). As an effective policy, this action optimizes soci...

House allocation with fractional endowments

We study a generalization of the well known house allocation problem in which agents may own fractions of different houses summing to an arbitrary quantity, but have use for only the equivalent of one unit of a house. We also depart from the classical model by assuming that arbitrary quantities of each house may be available to the market. Justified envy considerations arise when two agents hav...
