  2. Pareto efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_efficiency

    Constrained Pareto efficiency is a weakening of Pareto optimality, accounting for the fact that a potential planner (e.g., the government) may not be able to improve upon a decentralized market outcome, even if that outcome is inefficient. This will occur if it is limited by the same informational or institutional constraints as are individual ...

  3. Pareto distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_distribution

    The Pareto distribution, named after the Italian civil engineer, economist, and sociologist Vilfredo Pareto, [2] is a power-law probability distribution that is used in description of social, quality control, scientific, geophysical, actuarial, and many other types of observable phenomena; the principle originally applied to describing the distribution of wealth in a society, fitting the trend ...

  4. Efficient approximately fair item allocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efficient_approximately...

    Efficiency notions: Pareto-efficiency, graph Pareto-efficiency (where Pareto-domination considers only exchanges between neighbors on a fixed graph), and group-Pareto-efficiency. An allocation X as k-group-Pareto-efficient (GPE k ) if there is no other allocation Y that is at least as good (by arithmetic mean of utilities) for all groups of ...

  5. Pareto front - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_front

    In multi-objective optimization, the Pareto front (also called Pareto frontier or Pareto curve) is the set of all Pareto efficient solutions. [1] The concept is widely used in engineering . [ 2 ] : 111–148 It allows the designer to restrict attention to the set of efficient choices, and to make tradeoffs within this set, rather than ...

  6. Multi-objective optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-objective_optimization

    Multi-objective optimization or Pareto optimization (also known as multi-objective programming, vector optimization, multicriteria optimization, or multiattribute optimization) is an area of multiple-criteria decision making that is concerned with mathematical optimization problems involving more than one objective function to be optimized simultaneously.

  7. Allocative efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allocative_efficiency

    In view of the Pareto efficiency measurement method, it is difficult to use in actual operation, including the use of human and material resources, which is hard to achieve a full range of efficiency allocation, and it is mainly to make judgments from the allocation of funds; therefore, analyzing the funds in the stock market.

  8. Contract curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contract_curve

    In the case of two goods and two individuals, the contract curve can be found as follows. Here refers to the final amount of good 2 allocated to person 1, etc., and refer to the final levels of utility experienced by person 1 and person 2 respectively, refers to the level of utility that person 2 would receive from the initial allocation without trading at all, and and refer to the fixed total ...

  9. Ordinal Pareto efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordinal_Pareto_efficiency

    Ordinal Pareto efficiency refers to several adaptations of the concept of Pareto-efficiency to settings in which the agents only express ordinal utilities over items, but not over bundles. That is, agents rank the items from best to worst, but they do not rank the subsets of items.
