The paper studies autonomous dynamic systems that allow for the existence of economic growth per capita without dynamically generating explosive solutions. The implications of any degree of homogeneity, including increasing returns to scale in production, must be carefully examined in two and...

This paper analyzes Walrasian general equilibrium systems and calculates the static and dynamic solutions for competitive market equilibria. The Walrasian framework encompasses the basic multi-sector growth (MSG) models with neoclassical production technologies in N sectors (industries). The...

Multi-sector growth (MSG) models have a special aura which is shared with Computable general equilibrium (CGE) models. Both of them, with their many sectors (industries, goods), are known as trying to convert Walrasian general equilibrium systems from an abstract economy representation into...

The Ricardian principle of ‘comparative advantage’ refers to relative costs (relative autarky prices) compared to another country. The relative cost (price) functions can be obtained directly from specified cost functions with global regularity properties. We derive the CES relative cost...
