We study a continuous-time problem of optimal public good contribution under uncertainty for an economy with a finite number of agents. Each agent can allocate his wealth between private consumption and repeated but irreversible contributions to increase the stock of some public good. We study...

We consider (cooperative) linear production games with a continuum of players. The coalitional function is generated by r + 1 "production factors" that is, non atomic measures defined on an interval. r of these are orthogonal probabilities which, economically, can be considered as "cornered"...

In this article we study the implication of thresholds in preferences. To model this we extend the basic model of John and Pecchenino (1994) by allowing the current level of environmental quality to have a discrete impact on how an agent trades o ff future consumption and environmental quality....
