There is a debate about whether risk aversion is the main source of overbidding in a first-price independent private values auction. As an alternative, we adopt a non-expected utility framework, and identify an interpretable property on the probability weighting function which always induces...

This paper proposes a simple algorithm for the numerical computation of the non parametric IV quantile estimation. This algorithm is based on the Landweber iterations for solving a nonlinear integral equation. The paper is illustrated by numerical simulations.
