  2. Economic equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_equilibrium

    In most simple microeconomic stories of supply and demand a static equilibrium is observed in a market; however, economic equilibrium can be also dynamic. Equilibrium may also be economy-wide or general, as opposed to the partial equilibrium of a single market. Equilibrium can change if there is a change in demand or supply conditions.

  3. Supply and demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_and_demand

    Partial equilibrium, as the name suggests, takes into consideration only a part of the market to attain equilibrium. Jain proposes (attributed to George Stigler ): "A partial equilibrium is one which is based on only a restricted range of data, a standard example is price of a single product, the prices of all other products being held fixed ...

  4. Potential flow around a circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_flow_around_a...

    In mathematics, potential flow around a circular cylinder is a classical solution for the flow of an inviscid, incompressible fluid around a cylinder that is transverse to the flow. Far from the cylinder, the flow is unidirectional and uniform. The flow has no vorticity and thus the velocity field is irrotational and can be modeled as a ...

  5. The Market for Lemons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Market_for_Lemons

    The expected utility for the buyer will always increase - for a monotonic, positive utility function - as the probability of encountering a peach increases. = (¯) (¯) > Furthermore, the equation for a buyer's expected utility implies that the equilibrium price in an informationally symmetric market is: = (¯) + (¯) However, the used car ...

  6. Comparative statics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparative_statics

    This means that the equilibrium price depends positively on the demand intercept if g – b > 0, but depends negatively on it if g – b < 0. Which of these possibilities is relevant? In fact, starting from an initial static equilibrium and then changing a, the new equilibrium is relevant only if the market actually goes to that new equilibrium ...

  7. Walras's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walras's_law

    It follows that the market value of total excess demand in the economy must be zero, which is the statement of Walras's law. Walras's law implies that if there are n markets and n – 1 of these are in equilibrium, then the last market must also be in equilibrium, a property which is essential in the proof of the existence of equilibrium.

  8. Mathematical economics - Wikipedia

    The solution of the resulting system of equations (both linear and non-linear) is the general equilibrium. [25] At the time, no general solution could be expressed for a system of arbitrarily many equations, but Walras's attempts produced two famous results in economics. The first is Walras' law and the second is the principle of tâtonnement.

  9. Edgeworth box - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgeworth_box

    The conceptual framework of equilibrium in a market economy was developed by Léon Walras [7] and further extended by Vilfredo Pareto. [8] It was examined with close attention to generality and rigour by twentieth century mathematical economists including Abraham Wald, [9] Paul Samuelson, [10] Kenneth Arrow and Gérard Debreu. [11]
