This paper studies fiscal--monetary policy interactions in an endogenous growth model with multiple assets. Under an interest-rate rule, there are two Pareto-ranked balanced growth equilibria. The E-stability principle is used to pin down an equilibrium. Interestingly, expectational...

In this paper, we perform an in - depth investigation of relative merits of two adaptive learning algorithms with constant gain, Recursive Least Squares (RLS) and Stochastic Gradient (SG), using the Phelps model of monetary policy as a testing ground. The behavior of the two learning algorithms...

We analyze Ramsey optimal monetary policy in a New-Keynesian model withsearch and matching frictions featuring (i) training costs due to skill loss fromlong-term unemployment and (ii) endogenous growth through learning-by-doingexternalities. In a simplified two-period version of the model, the...
