Do U.S. economists have special terms for these two terms?
Context: Las propuestas que sustentan el establecimiento de controles se basan en dos criterios básicos: en la existencia de “fallas del mercado”, cuando hay divergencias entre los movimientos del capital y los parámetros fundamentals de la economía, y en los llamados “arbitrajes del mercado”, cuando sucedan diversas estructuras de riesgos y rendimientos relativos entre los flujos internacionales de capitales.

Market failure/Arbitrage
MARKET FAILURE:
Market failure is a concept within economic theory wherein the allocation of goods and services by a free market is not efficient. Market failure can be viewed as a scenario in which individuals' pursuit of self-interest leads to unsatisfactory results for the society.[1] The first known use of the term by economists was in 1958,[2] but the concept has been traced back to the Victorian philosopher Henry Sidgwick.[3]
The belief that markets can have inefficient outcomes is a common mainstream justification for government intervention in free markets.[4] Economists, especially microeconomists, use many different models and theorems to analyze the causes of market failure, and possible means to correct such a failure when it occurs.[5] Such analysis plays an important role in many types of public policy decisions and studies. However, some types of government policy interventions, such as taxes, subsidies, bailouts, wage and price controls, and regulations, including attempts to correct market failure, may also lead to an inefficient allocation of resources, which has been called government failure.[6] Thus, there is often a choice between imperfect outcomes, i.e. imperfect market outcomes and imperfect government outcomes.
ARBITRAGE:
In economics and finance, arbitrage is the practice of taking advantage of a price differential between two or more markets: striking a combination of matching deals that capitalize upon the imbalance, the profit being the difference between the market prices. When used by academics, an arbitrage is a transaction that involves no negative cash flow at any probabilistic or temporal state and a positive cash flow in at least one state; in simple terms, a risk-free profit. A person who engages in arbitrage is called an arbitrageur such as a bank or brokerage firm. The term is mainly applied to trading in financial instruments, such as bonds, stocks, derivatives, commodities and currencies.
If the market prices do not allow for profitable arbitrage, the prices are said to constitute an arbitrage equilibrium or arbitrage-free market. An arbitrage equilibrium is a precondition for a general economic equilibrium. The assumption that there is no arbitrage is used in quantitative finance to calculate a unique risk neutral price for derivatives
