This monograph deals with the analysis of some formal problems involving operators in Euclidean spaces and their applications to economic modelling. It contains a set of results on the solvability of complementarity problems and variational inequalities.

This book deals with the analysis of production economies in which firms may exhibit increasing returns to scale, or other forms of non-convexities. The study focuses on the existence and efficiency of equilibrium allocations, and the comparison with the standard competitive equilibrium model. A number of alternative pricing rules and equilibrium concepts are considered (marginal pricing, constrained profit maximization, mark-up pricing, valuation equilibria, non-linear input-output models, etc.).

These lectures aim to help readers understand the logics and nature of the main indicators of inequality and poverty, with special attention to their social welfare underpinnings. The key approach consists in linking inequality and poverty measurement with welfare evaluation. As concern for inequality and poverty stems from ethical considerations, the measurement of those aspects necessarily involves some value judgments. Those value judgments can be linked, directly or indirectly, to welfare assessments on the distribution of personal and social opportunities. Inequality and poverty are...
