Income Distribution, Value Judgments, and Welfare: Errata

Quarterly Journal of Economics 1957 71(2), 324-324 open access
(1). P. 386, note, last line: Theorem 5 should not appear. (2). P. 402, second line of Theorem 5: Line should begin with “ Q ”, not “ P ”. (The theorem is correct as it stands, but is easier to interpret with the correction.) (3). P. 403, eighth line from bottom: “= ( &Ymacr; + δ*)” should be deleted. (4). P. 421, Theorem A , second line and Corollary A , second line: “∽” should be “<f><inline-fig><link locator="71-2-324-fig001"></inline-fig></f>”.

Technical Change and the Aggregate Production Function

The Review of Economics and Statistics 1957 39(3), 312
В статье производится анализ агрегированной производственной функции, вводится аппарат, позволяющий различать движение вдоль такой функции от ее сдвигов. На основании сделанных в статье предположений делаются выводы о характере технического прогресса и технологических изменений. Существенное внимание уделяется вариантам применения концепции агрегированной производственной функции.

On the Solution of Discrete Programming Problems

Econometrica 1957 25(1), 84
This paper considers optimization problems in which some or all variables must take on integral values. An ability to solve such problems would be valuable in itself and would also allow handling certain kinds of heretofore intractable 'economies of scale'. An automatic algorithm for solving such problems is not given. A general approach susceptible of individual variations, depending upon the problem and the judgment of the user is presented. Two moderate-size examples are presented to illustrate the method. (Author)
