“…Theorem 4.1 applies to all other technologies developed in the literature, both convex and nonconvex, provided they are strongly disposable in all inputs and outputs. Examples of convex technologies to which Theorem 4.1 applies and for which embedding (4) is always true include the VRS and CRS technologies expanded by the incorporation of weight restrictions or dual to them production trade-offs (Podinovski, 2004b), their proportional analogues (Boloori & Afsharian, 2017), technologies with multiple component processes with joint inputs (Cherchye et al, 2013;Cherchye, De Rock, & Walheer, 2016), two-stage network technologies stated in terms of initial inputs and final outputs (Kao, 2014), bounded CRS technologies (Cooper, Pastor, Borras, Aparicio, & Pastor, 2011), hybrid returns-to-scale technology (Podinovski, 2004a) and its multiplecomponent generalization (Podinovski, Olesen, & Sarrico, 2018).…”
