In dynamic resource allocation models, the non-existence of voting equilibria is a generic phenomenon due to the multi-dimensionality of the choice space even with agents heterogeneous only in their discount factors. Nevertheless, at each point of time there may exist a "median voter" whose...

We study a growth model with two types of agents who are heterogeneous in their degree of family altruism. We prove that every equilibrium path converges to a unique steady state, and study the effect of altruism on the properties of steady-state equilibrium. We show that aggregate income is...

We consider two models of economic growth with exhaustible natural resources, exogenous technical progress and agents heterogeneous in their time preferences. In the first model we assume private ownership of natural resources. We show that every competitive equilibrium in this model converges...

A model of economic growth with many agents and borrowing constraints is considered under the assumption that wages are paid ex ante. It is shown that, in contrast to the traditional case where wages are paid ex post, the convergence of equilibrium paths to a steady-state equilibrium occurs...

We develop two models of economic growth with exhaustible natural resources and consumers heterogeneous in time preferences. The first model assumes private ownership of natural resources. In the second model, natural resources are commonly owned and the resource extraction rate is chosen by...

We consider a Barro-type endogenous growth model in which the government’s purchases of goods and services enter into the production function. The provision of government services is financed by flat-rate (linear) income or lump-sum taxes. It is assumed that individuals differing in their...

We introduce a two-classes one-good overlapping generations model of economic growth with bequests. The difference between capitalists and workers is that the firsts have larger discount coefficient and/or higher return to savings. For the model proposed, we define a balanced growth equilibrium...
