Are `Rational Conjectures' Rational?

The Journal of Industrial Economics, 1987
The concepts of 'rational conjectures' and 'reasonable conjectures' are critically reviewed. It is shown that their operation depends crucially on an invisible, non-optimizing 'deus ex machina'. Hence, these concepts are not really suitable for understanding competition among optimizing firms.

Rational bijection of rational sets

Acta Informatica, 1980
In this paper we initiate the study of rational bijections, that is of rational transductions which are bijections of a rational (=regular) set R onto a rational set S. We present a complete and easily decidable characterization of the existence of a rational bijection between two given rational sets.
