The inconsistency if the production function is a homogeneous degree ν CES function, solving the problem and the presentation of the Modern Universal Growth Theory; The foundation of economic growth theory

The use of a homogeneous not degree 1 CES production function in a simple economic model under conditions of maximum profit leads to an inconsistency. This paper identifies the root of this problem and provides a solution. Building on this, we propose an improved formulation of the Modern Universal Growth Theory, without focusing on all the difference with Solow, Harrod, Hicks, Uzawa and others, eliminating the errors and limitations inherent in earlier models like those developed by Solow in the 1960s. We conclude that approximate 40 % of the existing theory on economic growth is now rendered invalid.
