''A production function with variable elasticity of substitution greater than one'' |
( 2021, Vol. 41 No.3 ) |
|
|
The idea of this paper comes from the famous remark of Piketty and Zuckman: "It is natural to imagine that the elasticity of substitution was much less than one in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and became larger than one in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. One expects a higher elasticity of substitution in high-tech economies where there are lots of alternative uses and forms for capital." The main aim of this paper is to prove the existence of a production function of variable elasticity of substitution with values greater than one. |
