Optimal Growth Models with Bounded or Unbounded Returns: A Unifying Approach
Abstract
In this paper we propose a unifying approach to study optimal growth models with bounded or unbounded returns. We prove existence of optimal solutions. We prove also, without using contraction method, that the value function is the unique solution to the Bellman equation in some classes of functions.(This abstract was borrowed from another version of this item.)
