Nonparametric analysis of technology and productivity under non-convexity: a neighborhood-based approach

Chavas, Jean-Paul; Kim, Kwansoo - In: Journal of Productivity Analysis 43 (2015) 1, pp. 59-74

This paper investigates the nonparametric analysis of technology under non-convexity. The analysis extends two … free disposal hull (FDH) models. We argue that, while the FDH model allows for non-convexity, its representation of non-convexity … allows for less extreme forms of non-convexity. The distinctive feature of our approach is that it allows for non-convexity …

Nash bargaining for log-convex problems

Qin, Cheng-Zhong; Shi, Shuzhong; Tan, Guofu - In: Economic Theory 58 (2015) 3, pp. 413-440

<Para ID="Par1">We introduce log-convexity for bargaining problems. With the requirement of some basic regularity conditions, log-convexity is shown to be necessary and sufficient for Nash’s axioms to determine a unique single-valued bargaining solution up to choices of bargaining powers. Specifically, we...</para>

Alternative characterizations of the proportional solution for nonconvex bargaining problems with claims

Lombardi, Michele; Yoshihara, Naoki - 2008

We provide three alternative characterizations of the proportional solution defined on compact and comprehensive bargaining problems with claims that are not necessarily convex. One characterization result is obtained by using, together with other standard axioms, two solidarity axioms. Another...

Preventing Biological Invasions: Doing Something vs. Doing Nothing

Simpson, David - National Center for Environmental Economics (NCEE), … - 2008

Both biologists and economists are concerned about invasive species. There are several well-documented instances in which biological invaders have done extensive damage. This has led some economists to conclude that biological invaders should be treated as a form of "pollution", and that the...

The Inefficiency of Private Adaptation to Pollution in the Presence of Endogenous Market Structure

Eisenack, Klaus - In: Environmental & Resource Economics 57 (2014) 1, pp. 81-99

The paper considers an industry where production costs rise due to pollution, but where this effect can be partially off-set by investing in adaptation as a private good. The focus is not on external effects, but industries where economies of scale are introduced from adapting to pollution. The...
