The paper studies the effects of heterogeneity upon the monetary and fiscal-budgetary policy interactions in a Keynesian monetary union. As a result of interactions, some of our results contrast sharply with the ones in studies that consider separately monetary, fiscal and budgetary policies....

central banks' monetary policy must be credible if the authorities want to curb inflation. A second view is that central banks … set their monetary policy by using all the information relevant for inflation and output projections. In Europe, a … controversy has emerged about the role of monetary aggregates as useful indicators of future inflation and output. On one hand …

We consider testing about the slope parameter β when Y - X β is assumed to be an exchangeable process conditionally on X. This framework encompasses the semi-parametric linear regression model. We show that the usual Fisher's procedure have non trivial exact rejection bound under the null...

We propose a new method of estimation in high-dimensional linear regression model. It allows for very weak distributional assumptions including heteroscedasticity, and does not require the knowledge of the variance of random errors. The method is based on linear programming only, so that its...

This paper applies He's homotopy perturbation method to compute a large variety of integral transforms. As illustration, the paper gives special attention to the Esscher transform, the Fourier transform, the Hankel transform, the Mellin transform, the Stieljes transform and some applications.

We extend PML theory to account for information on the conditional moments up to order four, but without assuming a parametric model, to avoid a risk of misspecification of the conditional distribution. The key statistical tool is the quartic exponential family, which allows us to generalize the...
