We investigate an overlapping generations monetary economy in which agents'expectations depend upon backward looking predictors of the future price level.

We study a panel structure with n subjects/entities being observed over T periods. We consider a class of models for each subject's data generating precess, and allow the unknown heterogeneity. In other words, we do not know many types we have, what the types are, and which subjects belong to...

This paper provides a unified framework for interpreting a wide range of interactions models which have appreared in the economic literature. The framework bears a close relationship to econometric models of descrete choice and therefore holds the potential for rendering interactions models...

In this paper we present a method for solving the multifirm stochastic growth model of Brock (1979). After obtaining a solution to the growth model, we derive a solution to the asset pricing model of brock (1982) using the duality between the two models.

The EC (Estimation-Classification) estimator, and its companion EC-algorithm, were introduced in El- Gamal and Grether (1995), and their properties further analyzed in El-Gamal and Grether (1996). The purpose of EC estimation is to uncover heterogeneity in panel data models in a manner which is...

We develop an equilibrium model of industrial structure in which the organization of firms is endogenous. Differentiated consumer products can be produced either by vertically integrated firms or by pairs of specialized companies. Production of each variety of consumer good requires a unique,...
