(2009)
This paper surveys the theories of social preferences. Social preferences are based on that people not only care about their own well-being, but they have a certain concern with payoffs and/or actions of others. We classify ... -
The coincidence of the kernel and nucleolus of a convex game: an alternative proof
(2013)In 1972, Maschler, Peleg and Shapley proved that in the class of convex the nucleolus and the kernel coincide. The only aim of this note is to provide a shorter, alternative proof of this result. -
The Economics of "Why is it so hard to save a threatened Language?"
Sperlich, Stefan; Uriarte Ayo, José Ramón (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2014-02)
We study the language choice behavior of bilingual speakers in modern societies, such as the Basque Country, Ireland andWales. These countries have two o cial languages:A, spoken by all, and B, spoken by a minority. We ... -
The impact of liberalizing cost-saharing on basic models of network formation
Olaizola Ortega, María Norma; Valenciano Llovera, Federico (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2015-09-12)
This paper studies the impact of "liberalizing " the cost-sharing of links on some basic models of network formation. This is done in a setting where both doubly supported and singly supported links are possible, and which ... -
The Language Game: A Game-Theoretic Approach to Language Contact
Iriberri Etxebeste, Nagore; Uriarte Ayo, José Ramón (2006-06)
We study a society inside which two official languages, the majority language A and the minority language B, are in contact and compete for the same social functions. We propose a non-cooperative game to capture some ... -
The Nucleolus, the Kernel, and the Bargaining Set: An Update
Iñarra García, María Elena; Serrano, Roberto; Shimomura, Ken-Ichi (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2019-06)
One of David Schmeidler’s many important contributions in his distinguished career was the introduction of the nucleolus, one of the central single-valued solution concepts in cooperative game theory. This paper is an ... -
The Ohlin-Keynes Debate on the German Interwar Reparations Revisited
Ormazabal Sánchez, Kepa Mirena (2008)
This paper analyzes the debate between Ohlin and Keynes on the question as to whether Germany was able to make the payments specified in the Dawes Plan. Keynes argued that Germany was able to collect the money but unable ... -
The SD-prekernel for TU games
(Departamento Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, 2016-03-14)We introduce and analyze a new solution concept for TU games:The Surplus Distributor Prekernel. Like the prekermel, the new solu- tion is based on the an alternative motion of complaint of one player against other with ... -
The SD-prenucleolus for TU games
(2011-12)We introduce and characterize a new solution concept for TU games. The new soluction is called SD-prenucleolus and is a lexicographic value although is not a weighted prenucleolus. The SD-prenucleolus satisfies several ... -
The Stability of the Roommate Problem Revisited
Iñarra García, María Elena; Larrea Jaurrieta, María Concepción ; Molis Bañales, Elena (2007-09)
The lack of stability in some matching problems suggests that alternative solution concepts to the core might be applied to find predictable matchings. We propose the absorbing sets as a solution for the class of roommate ... -
The Supercore for Normal Form Games
Iñarra García, María Elena; Larrea Jaurrieta, María Concepción ; Saracho de la Torre, Ana Isabel (2003-10)
We study the supercore of a system derived from a normal form game. For the case of a finite game with pure strategies, we define a sequence of games and show that the supercore of that system coincides with the set of ... -
The von Neumann-Morgenstern stable sets for 2x2 games
Iñarra García, María Elena; Larrea Jaurrieta, María Concepción ; Saracho de la Torre, Ana Isabel (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico IDepartamento de Economía Aplicada IV, 2012-11)
We analyze the von Neumann and Morgenstern stable sets for the mixed extension of 2 2 games when only single profitable deviations are allowed. We show that the games without a strict Nash equilibrium have a unique vN&M ... -
Timing of Wage Setting when Firms Invest in R&D
; Campo Corredera, María Luz (2003-12)
In this paper, we analyze the effect that the timing of wage setting (i. e. whether wages set sequentially or simultaneously) has on the investment in R&D of firms, when that investment increases the productivity of labor, ... -
To appove or not to approve: this is not the only question
Rodríguez Alcantud, José Carlos; Laruelle, Annick (2012)
This paper deals with electing candidates. In elections voters are frequently offered a small set of actions (voting in favor of one candidate, voting blank, spoiling the ballot, and not showing up). Thus voters can ... -
To disqualify or not to qualify: This is the other question
Rodríguez Alcantud, José Carlos; Laruelle, Annick (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2016-10-10)
In this paper we study ternary trichotomous rules, that allows for three levels of input, positive, neutral and negative and three levels of output, positive, undetermined and negative. We illustrate the interest of such ... -
Turnout Intention and Social Networks
Fosco, Constanza; Laruelle, Annick; Sánchez, Angel (2009-06)
How can networking affect the turnout in an election? We present a simple model to explain turnout as a result of a dynamic process of formation of the intention to vote within Erdös-Renyi random networks. Citizens have ... -
Two-part tariff licensing mechanisms
San Martín Lizarralde, Marta; Saracho de la Torre, Ana Isabel (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV-EHU, 2012-06)
Most of the patent licensing agreements that are observed include royalties, in particular per-unit or ad valorem royalties. This paper shows that in a differ entiated duopoly that competes á la Cournot the optimal ... -
Uncertain Information Structures and Backward Induction
(Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2014-03-25)In everyday economic interactions, it is not clear whether sequential choices are visible or not to other participants: agents might be deluded about opponents'capacity to acquire,interpret or keep track of data, or might ... -
Unilateral vs. Bilateral link-formation: Bridging the gap
Olaizola Ortega, María Norma; Valenciano Llovera, Federico (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2014-05-28)
We provide a model that bridges the gap between two benchmark models of strategic network formation: Jackson and Wolinsky' s model based on bilateral formation of links, and Bala and Goyal's two-way fl ow model, where links ... -
Valoración de la garantía de los planes de pensiones en España
Chamorro Gómez, José Manuel (2004-09)
Algunas reformas de la Seguridad Social animan u obligan a los individuos a pasar desde un sistema de pensiones con prestación definida gestionado públicamente a otro de aportación definida gestionado privadamente. Con ...
