We report an example of a two-dimensional undiscounted convex optimal growth model in continuous time in which, although there is a unique ``golden rule", no overtaking optimal solutions exists in a full neighborhood of the steady state. The example proves, for optimal growth models, a conjecture advanced in 1976 by Brock and Haurie that the minimum dimension for non-existence of overtaking optimal programs in continuous time is 2.

Abstract

We report an example of a two-dimensional undiscounted convex optimal growth model in continuous time in which, although there is a unique ``golden rule", no overtaking optimal solutions exists in a full neighborhood of the steady state. The example proves, for optimal growth models, a conjecture advanced in 1976 by Brock and Haurie that the minimum dimension for non-existence of overtaking optimal programs in continuous time is 2.
