CINECA IRIS Institutional Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishUtility functions of several variables are ubiquitous in economics. Their maximization requires inversion of the gradient map. Using convex analysis tools, we provide a representation of an extension of this inverse that accounts for possible constraints. To solve economic equilibrium problems, the utility functions of the agents are frequently aggregated into a representative (agent’s) utility function. We establish regularity and inversion properties of such representative utility functions.

| Abstract: | Utility functions of several variables are ubiquitous in economics. Their maximization requires inversion of the gradient map. Using convex analysis tools, we provide a representation of an extension of this inverse that accounts for possible constraints. To solve economic equilibrium problems, the utility functions of the agents are frequently aggregated into a representative (agent’s) utility function. We establish regularity and inversion properties of such representative utility functions. |
