We study identification in a class of three-equation monetary models. We argue that these models are typically not identified. For any given exactly identified model, we provide an algorithm that generates a class of equivalent models that have the same reduced form. We use our algorithm to...

We extend the Modigliani-Miller Theorem to the composition of the public debt and show that in a deterministic model the structure of a government's assets and liabilities is undetermined. Hence, a floating exchange rate regime can implement any attainable competitive equilibrium. Concerning...

The possibility of indeterminacy and sunspot fluctuations in dynamic rational expectations models has been often …, indeterminacy typically prevails for an arbitrarily small amplitude of the liquidity constraint. We also analyze the cyclical …

This paper explores the stability properties of the steady state in the standard two-sector real business cycle model with a sector-specific externality in the capital-producing sector. When the steady state is stable then equilibrium is indeterminate and stable sunspots are possible. We find...

only in the case of equilibrium price indeterminacy in intertemporal sequential models. First it will be shown that this … kind of indeterminacy arises from an arbitrary use of the tendency to a uniform rate of return on the supply prices of … theory of value and distribution, no price or Sraffian indeterminacy will result. Finally, we will argue that Mandler …
