This paper proposes a new approach to numerically solving a wide class of heterogeneous agent models in continuous time using adaptive sparse grids. I combine the sparse finite difference method with the sparse finite volume method to solve the Hamilton-Jacobian-Bellman equation and Kolmogorov...

This is a short survey on consumption theory. Consumption is important to both fluctuation and growth. In addition … decisions in a dynamic context. Uncertainty about income and interest rates are introduce in the second part of the paper. The …

This paper aims at assessing the temporal relationship that exists between the time reference of dynamic models with infinite and finite horizon. Specifically, comparing the optimal inter-temporal plans arising from an infinite-horizon model and a 2-period overlapping generations model in their...

Helicopter money is a monetary policy tool to boost spending levels in an economy experiencing low nominal demand, deflation and high debt to GDP ratio. It is the monetary financing of fiscal deficits, in a strict sense of “seigniorage”, in order to reach the inflation and the growth targets...

We examine the optimal consumption decisions of households in a micro-founded framework that assumes two financial frictions: heterogeneity between borrowing and saving households, and endogenous default. We study default in the context of two-period overlapping processes of consumer behavior,...

incomplete income insurance (Huggett 1993, Wang 2003). We show that, under the assumption of CARA utility with Gaussian shocks …, the Permanent Income Hypothesis (PIH) arises in equilibrium, as in models with full information-rational expectations, due … consumption, income and wealth, and find that elastic attention can make the model fit the data better. We finally show that the …
