Exact solutions for a Solow-Swan model with non-constant returns to scale

Theoretical Economics 2022-11-10 v1

Abstract

The Solow-Swan model is shortly reviewed from a mathematical point of view. By considering non-constant returns to scale, we obtain a general solution strategy. We then compute the exact solution for the Cobb-Douglas production function, for both the classical model and the von Bertalanffy model. Numerical simulations are provided.
