    Trockel W. Market demand is a continuous function of prices. Economics letters. 1983;12(2):141-146.A natural class of probabilities on the space of consumers' preferences is presented for which market (i.e., mean) demand is a (continuous) function of prices although individual preferences may be non-convex

    Trockel W. On uniform local dispersion on a family of G-orbits. Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications. 1986;118(1):173-179.Consider a topological space T which is the union of a family of G-orbits, where G is a locally euclidean group G acting on T. On every G-orbit consider a probability which is absolutely continuous with respect to the image measure of the normalized restriction of the Haar measure on some compact neighborhood of the identity in G. Assume that the densities of the probabilities on the orbits have a common upper bound. Let [mu] be a probability on T which is the integral over the measures on the orbits with respect to some probability [mu]' on T. It is shown that this specific kind of integral representation of [mu] does not depend on the size of the compact neighborhood of the identity in G

    Trockel W. CLASSIFICATION OF BUDGET-INVARIANT MONOTONIC PREFERENCES. Economics Letters. 1989;30(1):7-10.A linear utility representation theorem due to Blackwell and Girshick (1953) is used to answer the question as formulated by Grandmont (1987) whether Cobb-Douglas representable preferences are the only ones which are budget-invariant

    Trockel W. An alternative proof for the linear utility representation theorem. Economic Theory. 1992;2(2):298-302.The paper presents an alternative short proof for the linear utility representation theorem. In particular a generalization of the theorem of Blackwell and Girshick (1954) and a special case of the theorem of Herstein and Milnor (1953) are proved by exploiting the topological group structure of finite-dimensional Euclidean vector space

    Price-dispersed preferences and C 1 mean demand

    Full text link
    Dierker E, Dierker H, Trockel W. Price-dispersed preferences and C 1 mean demand. Journal of Mathematical Economics. 1984;13(1):11-42.In this paper we introduce the concept of price-dispersed preferences. Moreover we state conditions under which economies with price-dispersed preference distributions have a continuously differentiable mean demand function

    On Maskin monotonicity of solution based social choice rules

    Haake C-J, Trockel W. On Maskin monotonicity of solution based social choice rules. Working Papers. Institute of Mathematical Economics. Vol 393. Bielefeld: Universität Bielefeld; 2007.Howard (1992) argues that the Nash bargaining solution is not Nash implementable, as it does not satisfy Maskin monotonicity. His arguments can be extended to other bargaining solutions as well. However, by defining a social choice correspondence that is based on the solution rather than on its realizations, one can overcome this shortcoming. We even show that such correspondences satisfy a stronger version of monotonicity that is even sufficient for Nash implementability

    Smoothing demand by aggregation with respect to wealth

    Dierker E, Dierker H, Trockel W. Smoothing demand by aggregation with respect to wealth. Journal of Mathematical Economics. 1980;7(3):227-247.We suggest in this paper to treat the problem of smoothing demand by aggregation in a two-step procedure, corresponding to the two different constituents of consumption characteristics, wealth and preferences. Instead of imposing a manifold structure on preferences we exploit the nice structure of wealth-space. The first step of this procedure, aggregation with respect to wealth, is carried out. It is shown that, for any preference, aggregation with respect to wealth yields a mean demand which is almost everywhere C 1. Moreover, it is shown that for an important class of preferences, vanishing Gaussian curvature of indifference surfaces does not destroy differentiability of the mean demand function
