Abstract
In this paper, we study a neoclassical growth model with a (productivity inhibiting) pollution effect. In particular, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a topological chaos. We investigate how the condition changes as the strength of the pollution effect changes. This is a new application of a recent result characterising the existence of a topological chaos for a unimodal interval map by Deng et al. (J Econ Theory 201:Article 105446, 2022).
期刊介绍:
The purpose of Economic Theory Bulletin is to provide an outlet for research in all areas of Economics based on rigorous theoretical reasoning. The Economic Theory Bulletin together with Economic Theory are the official journals of the Society for the Advancement of Economic Theory.
The Economic Theory Bulletin is intended to publish:
1. Short papers/notes of substantial interest. Content is subject to the same standards as Economic Theory: research in all areas of economics based on rigorous theoretical reasoning and on topics in mathematics that are supported by the analysis of economic problems. Published articles contribute to the understanding and solution of substantive economic problems. Theory papers with the substance and style for other journals that specialize in short papers are welcomed. Corollaries of already known results in the literature are not appropriate for publication.
2. Survey papers that clearly picture the basic ideas at work in the area, the essential technical apparatus that is used and the central questions that remain open.
