Equilibrium in a dynamic game of capital accumulation with the overtaking criterion

Author

Listed:
  • Nowak, Andrzej S.

Abstract

A stationary overtaking equilibrium is constructed for a class of discrete-time games of capital accumulation. A verification of the equilibrium properties is made using some functional characterization of the overtaking optimality in dynamic programming.
