Abstract:
We study a class of exchange economies where the characteristics of the agent are fixed but the initial endowments. We define a notion of regular economies which encompasses the different approach of the literature. We then prove that a regular exchange economy has a finite odd number of normalized equilibrium price if the excess demand function satisfies a boundary condition. Then we study the set of regular economies and we prove that it is generic and open under usual assumptions.
