In past years, imperfect competition has been introduced in several dynamic models to show how mark-up variability, increasing returns (decreasing marginal cost) and monopoly profits affect the occurence of endogenous fluctuations. In this paper, we focus on another possible feature of...

In this paper, we address the question of deterministic cycles in a Ramsey model with heterogeneous infinite-lived agents and borrowing constraints, augmented to take into account the case of elastic labor supply. Under usual restrictions, not only we show that the steady state is unique, but...

This article examines the conditions under which endogenous fluctuations and periodic welfare inequality can emerge in OLG economies having an environmental dimension.

Nous étudions l'émergence de fluctuations endogènes dans un modèle à générations imbriquées dans lequel les producteurs se livrent une concurrence à la Cournot avec libre entrée. L'économie est caractérisée par un taux de marge variable et des rendements croissants. Nous analysons...
