Optimal modes in a multidimensional model of economic growth

Abstract

An n-dimensional problem of optimal economic growth in a multifactor model with the Cobb–Douglas production function and an integral-type functional with discounting is investigated. The model is studied by assuming that all amortization coefficients are equal. A constructive description of an optimal solution for a sufficiently large planning horizon and a sufficiently small discount coefficient is obtained. The extremal solution is described in analytical form. The studied problem with other production functions has a biological interpretation in an optimal growth model of agricultural plants with n vegetative organs during a specific finite time interval.
