This book contains invited essays in memory of Leonid Hurwicz
spanning a large area of economic, social and other sciences where
the implementation or enforcement of institutions and rules
requires the design of effective mechanisms. The foundations of
these articles are set by social choice concepts; game theory;
Nash, Bayesian and Walrasian equilibria; complete and incomplete
information. Besides in-depth treatments of well-established parts
of mechanism and implementation theory, contributions on novel
directions deal, for instance, with a quantum approach to game and
decision making under uncertainty; digitalization; and the design
of block chain for trading. The outstanding competence and
reputation of the authors reflect the appreciation of the
fundamental contributions and the lasting admiration of the
personality and the work of Leonid Hurwicz.
Back in the good old days on the fourth floor of the Altbau of
Bonn's Ju ridicum, Werner Hildenbrand put an end to a debate about
a festschrift in honor of an economist on the occasion of his
turning 60 with a laconic: "Much too early." Remembering his
position five years ago, we did not dare to think about one for
him. But now he has turned 65. If consulted, he would most likely
still answer: "Much too early." However, he has to take his
official re tirement, and we believe that this is the right moment
for such an endeavor. No doubt Werner Hildenbrand will not really
retire. As professor emeritus, free from the constraints of a rigid
teaching schedule and the burden of com mittee meetings, he will be
able to indulge his passions. We expect him to pursue, with
undiminished enthusiasm, his research, travel, golfing, the arts,
and culinary pleasures - escaping real retirement."
This volume covers a large range of interesting topics from many areas of economics ranging from conceptual and methodological foundations of economic theory to theoretical and empirical demand analysis. It includes articles on the economics of the public sector, of network industries, and of imperfect competition; on general equilibrium analysis and game theory; and on experimental, monetary, and financial economics. Papers presenting original research are supplemented by stimulating surveys. They together offer a broad spectrum for professional economists and doctoral students alike. Among the authors are some of the world`s leading economists including two Nobel Laureates.
Dieses Buch legt die wichtigsten vor einem Studium der
Wirtschaftswissenschaften erforderlichen Kenntnisse der
Schulmathematik dar und liefert die Grundlage fur einen
mathematischen Vorkurs, wie er an wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen
Universitaten ublich ist. Neben Grundbegriffen der elementaren
Mengenlehre und der Differential- und Integralrechung geht es unter
anderem auch auf die naturlichen, ganzen, rationalen und reellen
Zahlen ein. Struktureigenschaften fur Abbildungen werden in
abnehmender Restriktion eingefuhrt: Linearitat,
Differenzierbarkeit, Stetigkeit, Integrierbarkeit. In einem
abschliessenden Kapitel werden die Exponentialfunktion, der
Logarithmus und die Winkelfunktion diskutiert. Das Buch behandelt
somit grundlegende Kenntnisse der Mathematik und geht gleichzeitig
auf speziell in der Wirtschaftswissenschaft benotigte Notationen
und Terminologie ein. Vor und wahrend der ersten Semester der
Wirtschaftswissenschaft liefert das Buch unverzichtbare
Informationen und Grundlagen zu den im Studium notwendigen
mathematischen Zusammenhangen."
