In dose response studies, the dose range is often restricted due to concerns over drug toxicity and/or efficacy. We present restricted and unrestricted interval locally optimal designs with respect to a very general class of optimality criteria for estimating the underlying dose response curve....

We deviate from the symmetric case of the independent private value model by allowing the bidders’ value distributions, which depend on parameters, to be slightly different. We show that previous results about the equality to the first-order in the parameters between revenues from the...

Core equivalence and shrinking of the core results are well known for economies. The present paper establishes counterparts for bargaining economies, a specific class of production economies (finite and infinite) representing standard two-person bargaining games and their continuum counterparts...
