What are the endowments? There are already a fair number of questions discussing Edgeworth Box problems for two agents with Cobb-Douglas and Leontief preferences respectively but none with exactly these parameters. You check them out and see if you are still confused.

In a economy Arrow Debreau of pure exchange with two agents and two goods. With utility function of Leontief for agent B, where $U\_b(x\_b,y\_b)=\min(x\_b,y\_b)$; and for agent A a simple Cobb-Douglas $U\_a(x\_a,y\_a)=x\_ay\_a$ where the marginal rates of sustituion can´t be found because the concept of convergence can´t be applied. How do I solve this problem?
