More is Better an investigation of monotonicity assumption in economics
, 2008
"... Monotonicity of preference is assumed in the conventional economic theory to arrive at important conclusions such as “more commodities are preferred to less. ” However, Gary Becker claims that monotonicity is not necessary for these conclusions in his book Economic Theory [1]. This paper investigate ..."

The Extended Linear Complementarity Problem
, 1993
"... We consider an extension of the horizontal linear complementarity problem, which we call the extended linear complementarity problem (XLCP). With the aid of a natural bilinear program, we establish various properties of this extended complementarity problem; these include the convexity of the biline ..."

of the bilinear objective function under a monotonicity assumption, the polyhedrality of the solution set of a monotone XLCP, and an error bound result for a nondegenerate XLCP. We also present a finite, sequential linear programming algorithm for solving the nonmonotone XLCP.
1 1 Instrumental Variable Estimation When Compliance is not Deterministic: The Stochastic Monotonicity Assumption
, 2014
"... Abstract: The instrumental variables (IV) method is a method for making causal in-ferences about the effect of a treatment based on an observational study in which there are unmeasured confounding variables. The method requires a valid IV, a variable that is independent of the unmeasured confounding ..."

An additional assumption that is often made for the IV method is deterministic monotonicity, which is an assumption that for each subject, the level of the treatment that a

MONOTONE INSTRUMENTAL VARIABLES: WITH AN APPLICATION TO THE RETURNS TO SCHOOLING
, 1999
"... Econometric analyses of treatment response commonly use instrumental variable (IV) assumptions to identify treatment effects. Yet the credibility of IV assumptions is often a matter of considerable disagreement. There is therefore good reason to consider weaker but more credible assumptions. To this ..."

. To this end, we introduce monotone instrumental variable (MIV) assumptions and the important special case of monotone treatment selection (MTS). We study the identifying power of MIV assumptions alone and combined with the assumption of monotone treatment response (MTR). We present an empirical application
An Assumption-Based Framework for Non-Monotonic Reasoning
- Proc. 2nd International Workshop on Logic Programming and Non-monotonic Reasoning
, 1993
"... The notion of assumption-based framework generalises and refines the use of abduction to give a formalisation of non-monotonic reasoning. In this framework, a sentence is a non-monotonic consequence of a theory if it can be derived monotonically from a theory extended by means of acceptable assumpti ..."

The PATH Solver: A Non-Monotone Stabilization Scheme for Mixed Complementarity Problems
- OPTIMIZATION METHODS AND SOFTWARE
, 1995
"... The Path solver is an implementation of a stabilized Newton method for the solution of the Mixed Complementarity Problem. The stabilization scheme employs a path-generation procedure which is used to construct a piecewise-linear path from the current point to the Newton point; a step length acceptan ..."
