From the Hamiltonian first order conditions for this problem,

The optimal steady-state tax rate is found by setting each of λ(t), λi(t) and
λj (t) equal to zero and solving to find λ*, λ* and λ*. From optimal management
equation (14):
(nι + П2)
a(t)
λ(t) =
This holds for all t, therefore this is also true for steady-state λ* and a*, i.e.
λ*
(nι + n2)
a*
To find λ*, one solves
λ i(t)
⇒ λ*
2cιx(t) + λi(t)

Similarly, one finds that

(x2(t) + 1)2

Substituting back into (22), gives the optimal constant tax:
