We develop a general equilibrium production network model that spans two periods and incorporates heterogeneous households, firm-specific CobbDouglas production technologies, and a time-to-build mechanism for capital formation. Within this dynamic framework, we establish the existence and...

This paper demonstrates how both quantitative and qualitative results of general, analytically tractable asset-pricing model in which heterogeneous agents behave consistently with a constant relative risk aversion assumption can be applied to the particular case of "linear" investment choices....

In this paper we study the dynamics of a simple asset pricing model describing the trading activity of heterogeneous agents in a "stylized" market. The economy in the model contains two assets: a bond with risk-less return and a dividend paying stock. The price of the stock is determined through...

We present an analytical solution for the connectivity of a network model with a "non-simultaneous" linking scheme. Despite its simplicity, this model exhibits node-space correlations in the link distribution, and anomalous fluctuations behavior of the time series of the connectivity variable,...

We present a new approach to the study of networks where the formation of links is driven by unilateral initiative of nodes. First, we propose a mathematical description of the extreme introvert and extrovert model (XIE), a dynamic network model in which the number of links fluctuates over time...

The Conflict Analysis approach by Hipel and Fraser (1984) is well equipped to model repeated games. Players are assumed to posses a sequential reasoning that allows them to ( not necessarily correctly) anticipate the reaction of other players to their strategies. An individual’s best response...

We show that the playing sequence-the order in which players update their actions-is a crucial determinant of whether the best-response dynamic converges to a Nash equilibrium. Specifically, we analyze the probability that the best-response dynamic converges to a pure Nash equilibrium in random...

We study the co-evolution of asset prices and individual wealth in a financial market populated by an arbitrary number of heterogeneous, boundedly rational agents. Using wealth dynamics as a selection device we are able to characterize the long run market outcomes, i.e. asset returns and wealth...

In an economic geography model where both a negative pecuniary and a positive technological externality are present, we introduce an explicit dynamics of firms locational choice and we characterize its long run distribution. Our analysis shows that economic activities evenly distribute when the...

Within a financial market where a risk-free bond and a long-lived risky asset are exchanged by investors with heterogeneous trading rules, we assume that the investors most exposed to the risky asset are subject to joint liquidation needs. The latter encompass a risk whenever the market impact...
