Production takes time, and labor supply and profit maximization decisions that relate to current production are typically made before all shocks affecting that production have been realized. In this paper we re-examine the problem of stochastic optimal growth with aggregate risk where the timing...

This paper extends a family of well-known stability theorems for monotone economies to a significantly larger class of models. We provide a set of general conditions for existence, uniqueness and stability of stationary distributions when monotonicity holds. The conditions in our main result are...

In both estimation and calibration studies, the notion of ergodicity plays a fundamental role, permitting time series averages to be regarded as approximations to population means. As it turns out, many economic models routinely used for quantitative modeling do not satisfy the classical...

In estimation and calibration studies the convergence of time series sample averages plays a central role. At the same time, a significant number of economic models do not satisfy the classical ergodicity conditions. Motivated by existing work on asymptotics of stochastic economic models, we...

This paper strengthens the Hopenhayn-Prescott stability theorem for monotone economies by extending it to a significantly larger class of models. We provid general conditions for existence, uniqueness and stability of stationary distributions. The conditions in our main result are both necessary...

In estimation and calibration studies the concept of ergodicity plays a fundamental role. At the same time, a significant number of economic models do not satisfy the classical ergodicity conditions. Motivated by existing work on economic dynamics, we develop a new set of results on ergodicity...
