Robert G Chambers

Competitive Agents in Certain and Uncertain Markets

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Competitive Agents in Certain and Uncertain Markets uses concepts from optimization theory to develop an integrated analytic framework for treating consumer, producer, and market equilibrium analysis as special cases of a generic optimization problem. Building on basic economic concepts, Robert G. Chambers shows how virtually identical conjugate analyses form the basis for modeling economic behavior across both certain and uncertain circumstances.
