This paper reports on some mathematical and analytical properties of a static nonlinear model of a national economy or, more generally, of a multisectored economy. The model is a nonlinear version of the well-known linear input-output model of Leontief. Conditions are given for the nonlinear model to be workable in the sense that (i) there is a unique nonnegative vector of output production levels for each nonnegative final-demand vector, and (ii) the vector of output levels depends in a certain reasonable manner on the final-demand vector. Attention is also focused on several other properties of the model of economic interest. For example, it is shown that propositions completely analogous to the LeChatelier-Samuelson principle in both the weak and strong forms for workable Leontief systems are valid within the context of the nonlinear model.

Econometrica: Since 2019, Guido Imbens has served as the 14th Editor of Econometrica. On July 1, 2025, Marina Halac will become the Editor.
Quantitative Economics: Stéphane Bonhomme has been the Editor of Quantitative Economics since 2021. His successor will be Bernard Salanié.
Theoretical Economics: The Editor of Theoretical Economics since 2021 has been Simon Board. Taking over for him in July 2025 will be Federico Echenique.
Guido, Stéphane, and Simon have been outstanding Editors. We are grateful to them for the work they have done and will continue to do, and we look forward to further congratulating them next year.
