Market Imperfections, Equilibrium and Arbitrage

TL;DR: In this article, a general model that takes frictions into account is proposed, which is based on the Arrow-Debreu model, the Black and Scholes formula, and the theory of pricing by arbitrage.

Efficiency, Equity, And Generalized Lorenz Dominance

TL;DR: This article decompose the generalized Lorenz order into a size and a distribution component and show that it is always possible to find distributions H1 and H2 such that F stochastically dominates H 1 and H 1 Lorenz-dominates G, and such that H 2 and H 2 stochastic dominates G. They also discuss the implications of these results for choice under risk.

Naive Diversification Preferences and Their Representation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide mathematically and economically sound choice theoretic foundations for the naive approach to diversification by defining it as a preference for equality over inequality and derive its relationship to the classical diversification paradigm, and show that an economic agent is a naive diversifier if and only if his preferences are convex and permutation invariant.

Economics of Purifying and Blending, The

TL;DR: In this paper, the slope and curvature of the retail price-quality schedule were found to determine optimal processing decisions for material subjected to purification and/or blending processes when processing is costless.

Theory of Games and Economic Behavior

TL;DR: Theory of games and economic behavior as mentioned in this paper is the classic work upon which modern-day game theory is based, and it has been widely used to analyze a host of real-world phenomena from arms races to optimal policy choices of presidential candidates, from vaccination policy to major league baseball salary negotiations.

Ordered Families of Distributions

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison is made of several definitions of ordered sets of distributions, some of which were introduced earlier by the author [7], [8] and by Rubin [10], and the results are applied to obtaining tests that give a certain guaranteed power with a minimum number of observations.

Dynamic Inventory Policy with Varying Stochastic Demands

TL;DR: In this article, a dynamic inventory model is formulated in which the demand distributions may change from period to period, and the optimal policy at each stage is characterized by a single critical number which also could vary in successive periods.
