We address the fundamental issues of existence and efficiency of an equilibrium in a Ramsey model with many agents, where agents have heterogeneous discounting, elastic labor supply and face borrowing constraints.The existence of rational bubbles is also tackled. In the first part, we prove the...

This paper considers a multi-agent one-sector Ramsey equilibrium growth model with borrowing constraints. The extreme borrowing constraint used in the classical version of the model, surveyed in Becker (2006), and the limited form of borrowing constraint examined in Borissov and Dubey (2015) are...
