Abstract: | Let
be a sequence of differential information economies, converging to a limit differential information economy
(written as
). Denote by
the set of all ε-private core allocations, ε ≥ 0 (for ε=0 we get the private core of Yannelis (1991), denoted by
). Under appropriate conditions, we prove the following stability results (1) | (upper semicontinuity): if
,
, and if f

1-weakly, then
. | (2) | (lower semicontinuity): if
,
, ε > 0, then there exist
, with f

Presentations based on this paper were given by Balder at the Midwestern Theory Conference in Madison, Wisconsin (May, 2001) and at the SAET Conference in Ischia, Italy (June, 2001). |
