The Core of an Economy with Transaction Costs
定义了存在交易成本的经济体的核心概念,并用它证明复制经济序列的极限定理,为代理人面临序列预算约束的均衡定义提供了理论基础。
This paper defines a new concept of the core for an economy with transaction costs, and uses this concept to prove a limit theorem for sequences of replica economies. In this way it provides a rationale for a definition of equilibrium in which agents face a sequence of budget constraints. Since economies with incomplete markets are special cases of economies with transaction costs, the limit theorem also provides a rationale for Radner's equilibrium of plans, prices, and price expectations.
