aggregate volatility decays is determined by the structure of the network capturing such linkages. Our main results provide a …, but also indirectly to the rest of the economy. Our results highlight that sizable aggregate volatility is obtained from …

The propagation of macroeconomic shocks through input-output and geographic networks can be a powerful driver of macroeconomic fluctuations. We first exposit that in the presence of Cobb-Douglas production functions and consumer preferences, there is a specific pattern of economic transmission...

the supply network determine both whether aggregate volatility disappears as the number of sectors increases (i …-output relations) and aggregate volatility, and more importantly, the relationship between higher-order interconnections and aggregate … volatility. These higher-order interconnections capture the cascade effects, whereby low productivity or the failure of a set of …
