Dynamic General Equilibrium Modeling (eBook, PDF)

Computational Methods and Applications

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Presents various methods for computing the dynamics of general equilibrium models

In part I, the representative-agent stochastic growth model is solved with the help of value function iteration, linear and linear quadratic approximation methods, parameterised expectations and projection methods

In order to apply these methods, fundamentals from numerical analysis are reviewed in detail

Part II discusses methods for solving heterogeneous-agent economies

Rezensionen

From the reviews of the second edition:
"The book is devoted to the presentation of such methods applied to solving a variety of discrete stochastic and deterministic DGE models in infinite time horizon. The way the book is written enables to use it as a lecture book for courses on computational methods in macroeconomics or modern dynamic equilibrium modeling for graduate students. There are given many useful practical hints on using the methods in practice - this makes the book very valuable for practical users of DGE models." (Piotr Mackowiak, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1200, 2011)
