in this paper, economic convergence in selected oic (36 countries) is studied. the convergence hypothesis is tested through three approaches: beta convergence, sigma convergence, and time series model. ols is used for estimating the cross section model and cross variance is used to test the distributive model. for analyzing time series model, we used augmented dicky fuller test. beta convergenc...

studies pertaining convergence and its benefits for developing and underdeveloped countries, specifically latin american countries and the caribbean islands are essential because they can create the necessary grounds for further growth and development. the aim of this study is to analyze the economic growth of latin american countries and the caribbeans after their beta and sigma convergences d...

this paper has examined the phenomenon of convergence of per capita out put levels across the ic countries for the 1960-1998 periods. three concepts of convergence, i.e., sigma beta and relative beta, have been used. the estimated beta values reveals only a very weak convergence (?=.0014) across ic for 1960-1998 period. but when a more homogeneous group of countries were selected, the results s...

convergence hypothesis is one of the results of neoclassical growth model, which has been examined recently. this hypothesis has two forms of absolute and conditional beta-convergence and implies that regions with lower per capita output have higher per capita growth rates. since there is no data for regional gdp in iran, there has been n study to test convergence hypothesis in iran. our main c...

the convergence hypothesis maintains that an economy whose productivity lags behind other economies has a potential to grow faster. in other words, this economy can experience faster economic growth through absorbing, accepting, and using available technology experience. in this study, we have examined the relationship between tfp of industry sectors and regional convergence in iran's prov...

This paper focuses on evaluation of the impact of the global financial crisis on the process of real convergence within the EU28 economies. The beta-convergence approach is verified by the use of crosssectional linear regression analysis. The sigma-convergence is tested by standard deviation of real GDP per capita. The aim is to verify the hypothesis that the betaand sigma-convergence (βand σ-c...

In this paper, we define the almost uniform convergence and the almost everywhere convergence for cone-valued functions with respect to an operator valued measure. We prove the Egoroff theorem for Pvalued functions and operator valued measure θ : R → L(P, Q), where R is a σ-ring of subsets of X≠ ∅, (P, V) is a quasi-full locally convex cone and (Q, W) is a locally ...
