• Dynamics of K, H and L
• That sk and sh denote fraction of output devoted to physical and human capital, respectively.
• is a shift parameter.
• The production function of knowledge is not assumed to have
CR to labour and capital.
• CR is a replication one, i.e. if the inputs double, the new inputs
can do what the old inputs are doing , thereby doubling output.

• In the case of knowledge, replicating what the
existing inputs were doing would cause the same
set of discoveries to be mad twice, thereby leaving
the growth of A unchanged.
• Thus it is possible that there can be diminishing
returns in R&D.
• But interaction among researchers, fixed set up
costs, etc may be important that doubling L and K
more than doubles output; increasing returns.
• No restriction on how the stock of knowledge affect
production of new knowledge.
