Abstract

This paper is concerned with the formulation of an equilibrium model where each agent’s objective is a linear combination of two criteria, and the ratio of the weights associated with each criterion is continuously distributed across the population. I present several reformulations of that model in different variable spaces, some finite, some infinite While the various reformulations possess quite different theoretical properties, a common numerical procedure for their solution can be worked out. Indeed this algorithm has a very natural relationship with a subproblem common to each reformulation of the model.
