Equilibrium dynamics in an aggregative model of capital accumulation with heterogeneous agents and elastic labor
Journal of Mathematical Economics 43, 3-4 (2007) 287-317
Abstract: The paper extends the canonical representative agent Ramsey model to include heterogeneous agents and elastic labor supply. The welfare maximization problem is analyzed and shown to be equivalent to a non-stationary reduced form model. An iterative procedure is exploited to prove the supermodularity of the indirect utility function. Supermodularity is subsequently used to establish the convergence of optimal paths.
