In this paper we study Markov-perfect equilibria (MPE) of two-player multimode differential games with controlled state dynamics, where one player controls the transition between modes. Different types of MPE are characterized distinguishing between delay equilbria, inducing for some initial...

Markov-Ketten haben bei der Modellierung von ökonomischen Sachverhalten eine Vielzahl von Anwendungen. In den Wirtschaftswissenschaften steht oft ein Portfolio von Markov -Ketten im Mittelpunkt des Interesses, z.B. das Kreditportfolio einer Bank oder das Vertragsportfolio einer Versicherung. In...

This paper identiftes U.S. monetary and ftscal dominance regimes using machine learning techniques. The algorithms are trained and verifted by employing simulated data from Markov-switching DSGE models, before they classify regimes from 1968-2017 using actual U.S. data. All machine learning...

We develop a structural vector autoregressive framework that combines external instruments and heteroskedasticity for identification of monetary policy shocks. We show that exploiting both types of information sharpens structural inference, allows testing the relevance and exogeneity condition...
