Quasi-convex constraints using monotonic functions

Real-valued Monotonic functions defined on real line or subset of real line are both quasi-concave and quasi-convex, but that is not necessarily the case if the function is defined on $\mathbb{R}^n$ o …

Cost Minimization and Karush-Kuhn-Tucker

Here is the cost minimisation problem that we need to solve: \begin{eqnarray*} \min_{x_1,x_2} & w_1x_1+w_2x_2 \\ \text{s.t. } & \sqrt{x_1x_2}=\overline{y} \\ \text{and } & x_1\geq 1, x_2\geq 0 \end{eq …

Prove all cost functions are concave in input prices and demand for inputs is downward

Let $x(w, q)$ denote the solution to the cost minimization problem : \begin{eqnarray*} \min_{x} & \ w\cdot x \\ \text{s.t.} & \ \ f(x) \geq q \end{eqnarray*} where $f$ is the production function. Sin …
