We discuss two fundamental aspects of Fokker–Planck equations that are nonlinear with respect to probability densities. First, we show that evolution equations of this kind describe processes involving stochastic feedback and interpret stochastic feedback processes in terms of hitchhiker...

This paper compares solution methods for dynamic equilibrium economies. We compute and simulate the stochastic neoclassical growth model with leisure choice using Undetermined Coefficients in levels and in logs, Finite Elements, Chebyshev Polynomials, Second and Fifth Order Perturbations and...

This paper presents some new results on the solution of the stochastic neoclassical growth model with leisure. We use the method of Judd (2003) to explore how to change variables in the computed policy functions that characterize the behavior of the economy. We find a simple close-form relation...

Consider a min-max problem in the form of min xεX max 1≤i≤m {f i (x)}. It is well-known that the non-differentiability of the max functionF(x) ≡ max 1≤i≤m {f i (x)} presents difficulty in finding an optimal solution. An entropic regularization procedure provides a smooth...
