Abstract
This paper explores the Kuhn-Tucker conditions and convexity issues in a non-linear DEA model for the joint determination of efficiencies de veloped by Mar Molinero. It is shown that the usual convexity conditio ns that apply to Linear Programming problems are satisfied in this cas e. First order Kuhn-Tucker conditions are derived and interpreted. Est imation strategies are suggested. Some empirical work is reported.
