Abstract

In this paper, we study nonnegative, increasing, co-radiant and quasi-concave functions over real locally convex topological vector spaces. Such functions have frequently been employed in microeconomic analysis. We next characterize the abstract concavity, the upper support set and the superdifferential of this class of functions by applying a type of duality, which is used in microeconomic theory.
