In this paper we test whether German public debt has been sustainable by resorting to a test proposed by Bohn (1998). We apply non-parametric and semi-parametric regressions with time depending coefficients. This test shows that the mean of the coefficient relevant for sustainability has been...

In this paper we study a basic model of economic growth where we integrate a zero-dimensional energy balance model of the Earth. The albedo of the Earth is the piecewise smooth function of the average surface temperature, thus, taking into account possible feedback effects of a higher...
