Abstract

This paper deals with the existence of marginal pricing equilibria or equilibria with general pricing rules in an economy with increasing returns to scale or more general types of non convexities in production. Its main contribution is to posit the bounded loss and survival assumptions on a bounded subset of production allocations. Furthermore, the free-disposal assumption is weaken, which allows to consider non positive prices. Finally, we also provide an existence result for a quasi-equilibria, when the survival assumption is weaken on the attainable allocations.
