# Computational aspects of general equilibrium theory: refutable theories of value

Kubler, Felix; Brown, D J (2008). Computational aspects of general equilibrium theory: refutable theories of value. Berlin: Springer.

## Abstract

This monograph presents a general equilibrium methodology for microeconomic policy analysis. It is intended to serve as an alternative to the now classical, axiomatic general equilibrium theory as exposited in Debreus Theory of Value (1959) or Arrow and Hahns General Competitive Analysis (1971).
The methodology proposed in this monograph does not presume the existence of market equilibrium, accepts the inherent indeterminancy of nonparametric general equlibrium models, and offers effective algorithms for computing counterfactual equilibria in these models. It consists of several essays written over the last decade, some with colleagues or former graduate students, and an appendix by Charles Steinhorn on the elements of O-minimal structures, the mathematical framework for our analysis.
