Description

This monograph links complementarity to concepts and results involving supermodular functions on lattices and focuses on analysis and issues related to monotone comparative statics. The author presents a self-contained view of this field. The emphasis is on methodology, with the book developing an integrated theory pertaining to supermodularity, complementarity, and monotone comparative statics. It then applies that theory in the analysis of diverse economic models formulated as decision problems, nonco-operative games, and co-operative.
