Description for Supermodularity and Complementarity
Hardback. Links complementarity to concepts and results involving supermodular functions on lattices and focuses on analyses and issues related to monotone comparative statics. This book systematically develops a comprehensive, integrated theory pertaining to supermodularity, complementarity, and monotone comparative statics. Series: Frontiers of Economic Research. Num Pages: 288 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: KCA; PBWH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 229 x 152 x 20. Weight in Grams: 542.
The economics literature is replete with examples of monotone comparative statics; that is, scenarios where optimal decisions or equilibria in a parameterized collection of models vary monotonically with the parameter. Most of these examples are manifestations of complementarity, with a common explicit or implicit theoretical basis in properties of a super-modular function on a lattice. Supermodular functions yield a characterization for complementarity and extend the notion of complementarity to a general setting that is a natural mathematical context for studying complementarity and monotone comparative statics. Concepts and results related to supermodularity and monotone comparative statics constitute a new and important ... Read more
