Participation in economic games such as auctions is typically costly, which means that players (potential bidders) must consider whether to participate. Such decisions may be no less crucial than how to bid, and yet the literature has been mostly con

We investigate how redistribution of income is affected by the fact that income is privately observed and agents may not be truthful in their reports to tax authorities. In response, the government establishes an audit mechanism with penalties. Adher

This paper considers optimal insurance schemes in a principal-agent multi-dimensional environment in which two types of risk averse agents differ in both risk and attitude to risk. Risk corresponds to any pair of distribution functions (not necessari

We consider a principal-agent setting with two types of risk averse agents with different abilities to avoid losses. Abilities (types) are characterized by two distributions F and G which are agents' private information. All agents have the same incr

This paper considers a profit maximizing monopolistic insurer who offers insurance to two types of risk averse agents in an environment where the uninsured position has the same distribution across types, agents′ utility functions are private infor

For every integrable allocation (X 1,X 2, ...,X n ) of a random endowmentY=Σ =1/ X i amongn agents, there is another allocation (X 1*,X 2*, ...,X n *) such that for every 1≤i≤n,X i * is a nondecreasing function ofY (or, (X 1*,X 2*, ...,X n *) ar

A generating process of Jewitt's location independent risk concept is derived in terms of left stretches based on single crossings between distributions. For concave nondecreasing utility functions this stochastic order preserves monotonicity between

Most agents insure against risks which entail large losses, but few insure against small losses. The fact that organized lotteries charge low ticket prices examplifies this spirit. This weakly risk averse behavior pattern seems to be well structured

Demand for risky financial assets takes place in portfolio settings. The common stochastic orders applied in economics fail to rank demand for assets in such situations even for risk-averse investors. Therefore, the evaluation of the relative desirab

Actions in games that address economic environments such as auctions and oligopoly games are typically costly, and signals, or types, are interdependent. Consequently, such games may not have equilibria supported by monotone strategies, monotone equi
