Equilibrium existence in a discrete-time endogenous growth model with physical and human capital
This paper studies a discrete-time version of the Lucas-Uzawa endogenous growth model with physical and human capital in the presence of externalities. Existence of an optimal equilibrium is proved using tools from dynamic programming with bounded or unbounded returns. The proofs also rely on properties of isoelastic utility and homogeneous production functions and apply well-known inequalities in real analysis, seldom used in the literature, which significantly simplify the task of verifying certain assumptions that are rather technical in nature. Some advantages of adopting a parametric family of isoelastic utility functions, instead of the ad hoc formulation typically used, are also discussed.

Existence of a Radner equilibrium in a model with transaction costs
We prove the existence of a Radner equilibrium in a model with proportional transaction costs on an infinite time horizon and analyze the effect of transaction costs on the endogenously determined interest rate. Two agen…
Capital growth and survival strategies in a market with endogenous prices
We call an investment strategy survival, if an agent who uses it maintains a non-vanishing share of market wealth over the infinite time horizon. In a discrete-time multi-agent model with endogenous asset prices determin…
Endogenous noise trackers in a Radner equilibrium
We prove the existence of an incomplete Radner equilibrium in a model with exponential investors and an endogenous noise tracker. We analyze a coupled system of ODEs and reduce it to a system of two coupled ODEs in order…
Agentic Hives: Equilibrium, Indeterminacy, and Endogenous Cycles in Self-Organizing Multi-Agent Systems
Current multi-agent AI systems operate with a fixed number of agents whose roles are specified at design time. No formal theory governs when agents should be created, destroyed, or re-specialized at runtime-let alone how…
Radner equilibrium with population growth
We prove the existence of a Radner equilibrium in a model with population growth and analyze the effects on asset prices. A finite population of agents grows indefinitely at a Poisson rate, while receiving unspanned inco…
