While there is an extensive literature on identifying the asymptotic properties of adaptive learning algorithms, little is explicitly mentioned on how to actually implement these algorithms on the computer to analyze the quantitative effects of learning in dynamic macroeconomic models. The aim...

In the past decades, the amount of worldwide security transactions that was processed by electronic trading platforms increased significantly. In this paper we develop a theoretical framework for the pricing of limit orders of the Electronic Security Trading System Xetra operated by the German...

Several authors have presented reduced-form evidence suggesting that the degree of exchange-rate pass-through to the consumer price index has declined in Canada since the 1970s and is currently close to zero. Authors such as Taylor (2000) suggest that this is due to a change in the conduct of...

In this paper we provide explicit characterization of the escape dynamics for the Phellps problem of government controlling inflation with adaptive learning of the approximate Phillips curve, alternative to the one considered by Cho, Williams and Sargent (2002). Our approach is based on...

We consider a kinetic equation approach to dynamical systems with finite memory, based upon a probabilistic approach given in Dorofeenko and Shorish (2004). This approach uses a master equation methodology to analytically model the dynamics of distributed systems with many heterogeneous agents,...

The shape of the likelihood of several recently developed econometric models is often non-elliptical. Learning this shape using Gibbs sampling is discussed in this paper. A systematic analysis using graphical and computational methods is presented. Examples of the models considered in this paper...

This paper considers a discrete-time model of a financial market with one risky asset and one risk-free asset, where the asset price and wealth dynamics is determined by the interaction of two groups of agents, fundamentalists and trend extrapolators. In each period each group allocates its...

The purpose of OLAP (On-Line Analytical Processing) systems is to provide a framework for the analysis of multidimensional data. Many tasks related to analysing multidimensional data and making business decisions are still carried out manually by analysts (e.g. financial analysts, accountants,...

In this paper we examine the connection of microscopic network properties of trading and macroscopic properties of prices. Using intraday trading data from the London Stock Exchange, we are able to track which institutions traded with which and reconstruct the network of exchanged stocks. We...

The impact of money supply on real variables and on utility is an important question in monetary economics. Most previous work studies this impact in representative agent economies, often under perfect foresight. With such a framework, however, the use of fiat money as a medium of exchange...
