| ''Extended Gini index'' |
| ( 2021, Vol. 41 No.2 ) |
| |
| |
| We propose an extended version of Gini index defined on the set of infinite utility streams, $X=Y^{mathbb{N}}$ where $Ysubsetmathbb{R}$.
For $Y$ containing at most finitely many elements, the index satisfies the generalized Pigou-Dalton transfer principles in addition to the anonymity axiom. |
