This document presents a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with rule of thumb (Non-Ricardian) agents and both nominal price and wage rigidities. The model follows closely that of Galí et al. (2004) and expands it to include a second way form of heterogeneity (besides the...

Este trabajo revisa las principales formas que existen en la literatura para modelar las friccionesen el mercado laboral en el contexto de los modelos de equilibrio general dinámico y estocástico. Secubre en detalle el modelo de búsqueda de Mortensen y Pissarides (1994) y posibles...

I develop an assignment model of occupations with multidimensional heterogeneity in production tasks and worker skills. Tasks are distributed continuously in the skill space, whereas workers have a discrete distribution with a finite number of types. Occupations arise endogenously as bundles of...

We consider a game between several principals and a common agent, where principals know only a subset of the agent's available actions. Principals demand robustness and evaluate contracts on a worst-case basis. This robust approach allows for a crisp characterization of the equilibrium contracts...
