Risk and Inequality Perceptions [PDF]
We examine the relationship between risk analysis and inequality analysis, using a questionnaire-experimental approach .The experiments focus on the effect of income transformations on the perceived rankings of income distributions in either a risk or ...

Increasing Interdependence of Multivariate Distributions [PDF]
Orderings of interdependence among random variables are useful in many economic contexts, for example, in assessing ex post inequality under uncertainty; in comparing multidimensional inequality; in valuing portfolios of assets or insurance policies; and

On a vector-valued generalisation of viscosity solutions for general PDE systems
We propose a theory of non-differentiable solutions which applies to fully nonlinear PDE systems and extends the theory of viscosity solutions of Crandall-Ishii-Lions to the vectorial case.

Polarization: Robust Multidimensional Poverty Comparisons [PDF]
We investigate how to make poverty comparisons using multidimensional indicators of well-being, showing in particular how to check whether the comparisons are robust to aggregation procedures and to the choice of multidimensional poverty lines.

Towards Comparative and Aggregate Vulnerability: An Analysis of Welfare Distributions in Rural Provinces in Thailand and Vietnam [PDF]
Several measures of vulnerability to poverty have been suggested in the literature. In practise, only little is known about the robustness of vulnerability comparisons based on these often quite specific measures.

This paper investigates a class of distributed fractional-order stochastic differential equations driven by fractional Brownian motion with a Hurst parameter 1/2<H<1. By employing the Picard iteration method, we rigorously prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions with Lipschitz conditions.
