Production, Stability and Dynamic Symmetry

This seminal work offers a carefully edited collection of Ryuzo Sato's pioneering contributions to the analysis of the theories of production, preference, stability and dynamic symmetry in economics.The author examines production functions and preference functions containing both goods and money and studies the stability of general equilibrium systems and economic conservation laws. The book also includes Professor Sato's groundbreaking work on the application of Lie group theory to the estimation of technical progress.
