SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021 Empirical tests in the 1990s found little evidence of poor countries catching up with rich - unconditional convergence - since the 1960s, and divergence over longer periods. This stylized fact spurred several developments in growth theory, including AK models, poverty trap models, and the concept of convergence conditional on determinants of steady ...

Journal of Political Economy, 1992 A key economic issue is whether poor countries or regions tend to grow faster than rich ones: are there automatic forces that lead to convergence over time in the levels of per capita income and product? The authors use the neoclassical growth model as a framework to study convergence across the forty-eight contiguous U.S. states.

On the Convergence of Stochastic Process Convergence Proofs [PDF]
Mathematics, 2021 Convergence of a stochastic process is an intrinsic property quite relevant for its successful practical for example for the function optimization problem. Lyapunov functions are widely used as tools to prove convergence of optimization procedures. However, identifying a Lyapunov function for a specific stochastic process is a difficult and creative ...

Heterogeneous convergence [PDF]
Economics Letters, 2007 We use US county-level data to estimate convergence rates for 22 individual states. We find significant heterogeneity. E.g., the California estimate is 19.9% and the New York estimate is 3.3%. Convergence rates are essentially uncorrelated with income levels.

Convergence and Cointegration [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2011 This paper provides a new, united, and flexible framework to measure and characterize convergence in prices. We formally define this notion and propose a model to represent a wide range of transition paths that converge to a common steady-state. Our framework enables the econometric measurement of such transi-tional behaviors and the development of ...

Converging to Converge? A Comment
, 2021 Kremer, Willis, and You (2021) revisit cross-country convergence patterns over the last six decades. They provide evidence that the lack of convergence that applied early in the sample has now been replaced by modest convergence. They also argue this relationship is driven by convergence in various determinants of economic growth across countries and a

Synergistic convergence and substituted convergence
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013 Dear Editor, Jain et al.[1] described two intriguing cases with horizontal gaze palsy and progressive scoliosis. In the article, bilateral adduction on attempted lateral gaze was referred to by the term ‘synergistic convergence’. Bilateral deficit of abduction associated with simultaneous bilateral adduction on attempted lateral gaze has been ...
