  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 principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_principle

    The Pareto principle may apply to fundraising, i.e. 20% of the donors contributing towards 80% of the total. The Pareto principle (also known as the 80/20 rule, the law of the vital few and the principle of factor sparsity [1] [2]) states that for many outcomes, roughly 80% of consequences come from 20% of causes (the "vital few").

  4. 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.

  5. Fundamental theorems of welfare economics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_theorems_of...

    Pareto was hampered by not having a concept of the production–possibility frontier, whose development was due partly to his collaborator Enrico Barone. [19] His own 'indifference curves for obstacles' seem to have been a false path. Shortly after stating the first fundamental theorem, Pareto asks a question about distribution:

  6. Vilfredo Pareto - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vilfredo_Pareto

    Vilfredo Federico Damaso Pareto [4] [a] (born Wilfried Fritz Pareto; [7] 15 July 1848 – 19 August 1923) was an Italian polymath, whose areas of interest included sociology, civil engineering, economics, political science, and philosophy.

  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. 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 ...

  9. 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 ...
