We study aspects of economic growth in a region that is creative in the sense of Richard Florida. We model creativity by supposing that the region under study has two sectors. The first sector uses physical capital {K(t)} and trained workers {A(t)W(t)} to produce creative capital {R(t)}. The...

We study the effects of patent protection on economic growth in the ith region when this ith region is part of an aggregate economy of i=1,...,N regions. The regulatory authority in the ith region attempts to curtail the monopoly power of patent holding input producers by requiring them to...

We study innovation and the resulting Schumpeterian economic growth that this innovation gives rise to in a model with N heterogeneous regions. For each region i where i=1,...,N, our analysis leads to six findings. First, we define the balanced growth path (BGP) allocations and the equilibrium...

We use a multi-region model and provide the first theoretical analysis of the effects of human capital use and a particular kind of innovative activity on economic growth. In each of the N heterogeneous regions in our model, consumers have constant relative risk aversion preferences, there are...
