We study hedonic coalition formation games that consist of a finite set agents and list agents’ preferences such each agent’s depend only on the members her coalition. An outcome game is partition (i.e., structure) agents. existence partitions are both internally stable Pareto optimal. construct an algorithm terminates for given also show if consists singleton coalitions then it core contains g...

The purpose of this paper is to characterize the weak Pareto optimality for multiobjective pseudoconvex problem. In fact, it is a first order optimality characterization that generalize the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker condition. Moreover, this work is an extension of the single-objective case [6] to the multiobjective one with pseudoconvex continuous functions. Mathematics Subject Classification: 46N10,...

This paper reports an evolutionary approach called Scatter Search, that uses the concept of Pareto optimality to obtain a good approximate Pareto frontier. In order to designate a subset of strategies to be a reference solutions a choice function called Kramer Selection is used. A variant of measure of Kemen-Snell may be used, in our case study, in order to find a diverse set to complement the ...

We study when two-member household choice behavior is compatible with Pareto optimality. We ask when an external observer of household choices, who does not know the individuals’ preferences, can rationalize the choices as being Pareto-optimal. Our main contribution is to reduce the problem of rationalization to a graph-coloring problem. As a result, we obtain simple tests for Pareto optimal ch...

A significant aspect of the study of quantum strategies is the exploration of the gametheoretic solution concept of theNash equilibrium in relation to the quantization of a game. Pareto optimality is a refinement on the set of Nash equilibria. A refinement on the set of Pareto optimal outcomes is known as social optimality in which the sum of players’ payoffs is maximized. This paper analyzes s...

Sequential optimality conditions provide adequate theoretical tools to justify stopping criteria for nonlinear programming solvers. Here, nonsmooth approximate gradient projection and complementary approximate Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions are presented. These sequential optimality conditions are satisfied by local minimizers of optimization problems independently of the fulfillment of constrai...

The concept of economic equilibrium under uncertainty is applied to a model of insurance market where, in distinction to the classic Borch’s model of a reinsurance market, risk exchanges are allowed between the insurer and each insured only, not among insureds themselves. Conditions characterizing an equilibrium are found. A variant of the conditions, based on the Pareto optimality notion and i...
