Dear Professor,

Please permit me to make known to you my article on the Microeconomic Theory, which has been recently posted on the SSRN website:

The Disproof of Neoclassical Theory by Means of Its Own Means  http://ssrn.com/abstract=3745905

My research so far, which reveals fundamental mathematical mistakes of the conventional economic theory, is based mainly on the (wrong) conception of neoclassical theory for the price taking and the horizontal demand curve for the firm. This article, however, demonstrates these mistakes of conventional theory by using the methodology of the conventional theory itself, without getting involved in the controversial issue of the horizontal or sloping demand curve for the firm. The correction of those errors changes dramatically the conventional theory about Perfect Competition, Price Theory, Income Distribution, Social Welfare, and brings about significant socio-political implications.

I would appreciate very much, in particular, your comments and opinion on this research.

Sincerely,
