Title
Maintaining the Regular Ultra Passum Law in data envelopment analysis.
Abstract
•We discuss limitations of the maintained assumption of convexity in DEA.•BCC measure of efficiency is inconsistent with the Regular Ultra Passum Law.•We relax the assumption of convexity in DEA.•We develop a non-parametric piecewise linear estimator of S-shape production.•Using simulated data, we show that our new method overcomes BCC biases.
