Infinite-Horizon Choice Functions
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2006)
We analyze infinite-horizon choice functions within the setting of a simple linear technology. Time consistency and efficiency are characterized by stationary consumption and inheritance functions, as well as a transversality ...
