Following Stollery [1998], we extend the Solow, Dasgupta-Heal model to analyze the effects of global warning. The rise of temperature is caused by the use of fossil resources so that the temperature level can be linked to the remaining stock of these resources. The rise of temperature affects...

We offer a new method to characterized cointegration properties of higher orders. This method relies on a very simple device. We first examine the question in a deterministic framework, where cointegration porperties pertains to rate of growth. We relate these properties to the structure of the...

We study the optimal extraction of two non-renewable resources when extraction costs depend on cumulative previous extraction. We first define a complete user cost of natural resources, including environmental damages, which allows us to greatly simplify the resolution. This framework is applied...

International differences in fuel taxation are huge, and may be justified by different local negative externalities that taxes must correct, as well as by different preferences for public spending. In this context, should a worldwide unique carbon tax be added to these local taxes to correct the...

[eng] Game Theory offers the natural tool for a theoretical analysis of markets. Its usefulness becomes evident in the analysis of imperfect competition. To illustrate this theme we first examine the analysis of price competition stemming from the Bertrand- Edgeworth model which has led to the...
