    On the Existence of Equilibrium with Incomplete Markets and Non-Monotonic Preferences
    (2008) Andrés Carvajal; John Geanakoplos; Álvaro Riascos
    We provide a shorter proof than Geanakoplos and Polemarchakis (1986) of the existence of equilibrium in an incomplete financial market economy with numeraire assets, under the weak assumption that asset returns are non-negative. Furthermore, we relax the strict monotonicity assumption on preferences and as an application we prove the existence of equilibrium when agents may disagree on zero probability events but do not plan to go bankrupt in any state.
