In this article, it was shown that a convex subset of Euclidean d-space R d is convex (concave) if the inequality F(OA + (1 O)B)
Abstract
Given subsets A and B of Euclidean d-space R a and 0 ~ 0, we set A + B -{x + Y l x E A, y E B} and OA = {Ox Ix 6 A }. Further given a convex subset g2 of R d we shall say that a set function F : 2 ~ \ {~} ~ [0, + ~ ] is convex (concave} if the inequality F(OA + (1 O)B) ~ Or(A} + (1 0 ) / ' ( B ) (>=.) holds for all It ~ A, B c_ D, and all 0 < 0 < 1. Here we shall s tudy such set functions of the special form given in the following

The empirical content of the roy model

- 01 Sep 1990 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the identifiability of the Roy model from data on earnings distributions and show that the normal theory version is identifiable without regressors or exclusion restrictions and with sufficient price variation, the model can be identified from multimarket data.
