Growth paths and survival chances: An application of Gambler's Ruin theory

Coad, Alex; Frankish, Julian; Roberts, Richard G.; … - In: Journal of Business Venturing 28 (2013) 5, pp. 615-632

This paper links new firm survival with growth, with a focus on the patterns in firms' growth paths. We theorise a … taxonomy of growth paths, because we observe that every possible growth path seems to occur with roughly equal probability …. However, we observe that growth paths influence subsequent survival. Controlling for lagged size, we observe that longer lags …

Endogenous Growth Paths in Economies with Locally Interacting Agents

Fagiolo; G.; Dosi; G. - Society for Computational Economics - SCE - 2001

The paper presents a dynamic model of endogenous growth with boundedly-rational, locally interacting, firms. Technologies are randomly distributed in a n-dimensional lattice (the productivity space) in such a way that distances between any two practices in the lattice can be taken as a proxy of...

Exhaustible Resources, Monopolistic Competition, and Endogenous Growth

Scholz, Christian; Ziemes, Georg - In: Environmental & Resource Economics 13 (1999) 2, pp. 169-185

One of the central analytical findings of the growth literature is that continuous growth is possible even in an economy with exhaustible resources. Based on this result, this paper addresses the question of whether different equilibrium trajectories which lead to a balanced growth path are...
