Asset Prices, Funds’ Size and PortfolioWeights in Equilibrium with Heterogeneousand Long-Lived Funds
Cvitani, Jaksa; Malamud, Semyon - Swiss National Centre of Competence in Research North … - 2009
We perform a detailed asymptotic analysis of the equilibrium behavior of the assetprices, wealth size and portfolio weights in complete markets equilibria, with long-livedfunds. In equilibrium, the fund with the (closest to) log preference will dominate theother funds in size, in the long-run,...

Gagliardini, Patrick; Gourieroux, Christian; Monfort, Alain - Swiss National Centre of Competence in Research North … - 2010
The recursive prediction and filtering formulas of the Kalman filter are difficult to implementin nonlinear state space models. For Gaussian linear state space models, or for models with qualitativestate variables, the recursive formulas of the filter require the updating of a finite number...
