We develop a general equilibrium model of interest rates based on a continuous-time production economy populated by heterogeneous shareholders with logarithmic preferences. It allows us to study the impact of belief heterogeneity on bonds, the risk-free rate, and the yield curve. In particular,...

In this paper we study some foundational issues in the theory of asset pricing with market frictions. We model market frictions by letting the set of marketed contingent claims (the opportunity set) be a convex set, and the pricing rule at which these claims are available be convex. This is the...

We consider a complete financial market with primitive assets and derivatives on these primitive assets. Nevertheless, the derivative as sets are non-redundant in the market, in the sense that the market is complete, only with their existence. In such a framework, we derive an equilibrium...
