TLDR
In this paper, the Stolper-Samuelson theorem was generalized to the n x n case and the conditions established in these theorems were then interpreted economically in terms of the generalized versions of factor intensity.
Abstract
This paper is concerned with the generalization of the Stolper-Samuelson theorem from the 2 x 2 case to the n x n case. We start by proving theorems establishing the validity of the factor price equalization theorem and the Stolper-Samuelson theorem for the n x n case. The conditions established in these theorems are then interpreted economically in terms of the generalized versions of factor intensity. It may be noted that the above results, apart from being more readily interpretable in economic terms, are of basic mathematical interest.

Heckscher-Ohlin Trade Theory

TL;DR: Ohlin's model of the international economy is astonishingly contemporary, dealing as it does with economies of scale, factor mobility, trade barriers, nontraded goods, and balance-of-payments adjustment.

Chapter 3 Higher dimensional issues in trade theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the Heckscher-ohlin theory of international trade in higher dimensions, and the sensitivity to higher dimensions of the basic propositions of the international trade theory is the key issue for the practical relevance of the logical structure that has dominated trade theory in the past 30 years.

The Relevance of the Two-Sector Production Model in Trade Theory

TL;DR: This article examined how well the basic properties of the traditional 2 × 2 model of a competitive economy, commonly used in much of the pure theory of international trade, generalize when more goods and factors are considered.
