The coincidence of the kernel and nucleolus of a convex game: an alternative proof

Consumption and portfolio rules whit stochastic hyperbolic discounting
(Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, 2013-09)
We extend the classic Merton (1969, 1971) problem that investigates the joint consumption-savings and portfolio-selection problem under capital risk by assuming sophisticated but time-inconsistent agents. We introduce ...
Approximate knowledge of rationality and correlated equilibria
(Departamento de fundamentos del análisis económico I, 2012-07-16)
We extend Aumann's [3] theorem deriving correlated equilibria as a consequence of common priors and common knowledge of rationality by explicitly allowing for non-rational behavior. We replace the
assumption of common ...
Expected Fair Allocation in Farsighted Network Formation
(2013)
I consider cooperation situations where players have network relations. Networks evolve according to a stationary transition probability matrix and at each moment in time players receive payoffs from a stationary allocation ...
Coalitional games with veto players: Myopic and farsighted behavior
(Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, 2013-10-10)
This paper studies an allocation procedure for coalitional games with veto players. The procedure is similar to the one presented by
Dagan et al. (1997) for bankruptcy problems. According to it, a player, the proposer, ...
Monopoly price discrimination with constant elasticity demand
(Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, 2013-11)
This paper presents new results on the welfare e¤ects of third-degree price discrimination under constant elasticity demand. We show that when both the share of the strong market under uniform pricing and the elasticity ...
