In this paper I derive the matrix chain rules for solving a second and a third-order approximation to a DSGE model that allow the use of a recursive Sylvester equation solution method. In particular I use the solution algorithms of Kamenik (2005) and Martin & Van Loan (2006) to solve the...

I outline a new method for finding third-order accurate solutions to dynamic general equilibrium models. I extend the Gomme & Klein (2011) solution for second-order approximations without using tensors, to a third-order. In particular I derive a third-order matrix chain rule and use this to...
