The DSGE methodology attempts to explain aggregate economic phenomena, such as economic growth , business cycles , and the effects of monetary policy monetary and fiscal policy , on the basis of macroeconomic model s derived from microfoundations microeconomic principles . One of the main reasons macroeconomists seek to build microfounded models is that, unlike more Large scale macroeconometric model traditional macroeconometric forecasting models , microfounded models should not, in principle, be vulnerable to the Lucas critique . Furthermore, since the microfoundations are based on the preferences of the decision makers in the model, DSGE models feature a natural benchmark for evaluating the welfare effects of policy changes for discussion of both points, see Woodford, 2003, pp. 11 12 and Tovar, 2008, pp. 15 16 .

Unreferenced date January 2007 The classical generalequilibrium model aims to describe the economy by aggregating the behavior of individuals and firms. Note that the classical generalequilibrium model is unrelated to classical economics , and was instead developed within neoclassical economics beginning in the late 19th century. In the model, the individual is assumed to be the basic unit of analysis and these individuals, both workers and employers, will make choices that reflect their unique tastes, objectives, and preferences. It is assumed that individuals wants typically exceed their ability to satisfy them hence scarcity of good economics goods and time . It is further assumed that individuals will eventually experience diminishing marginal utility. Finally, wages and prices are assumed to be elastic they move up and down freely . The classical model assumes that traditional supply and demand analysis is the best approach to understanding the labor market . The functions that follow are aggregate functions that can be thought of as the summation of all the individual participants in the market. Aggregate supply Empty section date July 2010 Labor demand The consumers of the labor market are firms. The demand for labor services is a derived demand, derived from the supply and demand for the firm s products in the goods market.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Intertemporal equilibrium is a notion of economic equilibrium conceived over many periods of time. In modern economic theory, most models explicitly take into account the fact that the economy evolves over time, and that its equilibrium cannot be fruitfully analyzed from a purely static perspective. Therefore the generalequilibrium of the economy is conceived as an intertemporal equilibrium , meaning that household s and Business firms are assumed to make intertemporal decisions. That is, households are assumed to choose consumption and labor on the basis of wage s, price s, utility , and wealth over their whole lifetimes, instead of considering these quantities at just one point in time. Likewise, firms are assumed to choose hiring, investment, and output on the basis of productivity and demand over the foreseeable future, instead of considering these quantities at just one point in time. The intertemporal generalequilibrium is then analyzed as the Nash equilibrium or competitive equilibrium of the intertemporal Strategy game theory strategies of all the households and firms and any other economic agents under consideration, such as governments .

Equilibrium selection is a concept from game theory which seeks to address reasons for players of a game to select a certain equilibrium over another. The concept is especially relevant in evolutionary game theory , where the different methods of equilibrium selection respond to different ideas of what equilibria will be stable and persistent for one player to play even in the face of deviations and mutations of the other players. This is important because there are various equilibrium concept s, and for many particular concepts, such as the Nash equilibrium , many games have multiple equilibria.

Radner equilibrium is an economic concept defined by economist Roy Radner in the context of generalequilibrium . The concept is an extension of the Arrow Debreu equilibrium and the base for the first consistent incomplete markets framework. The departure from the Arrow Debreu framework are two fold 1 uncertainty is explicitly modelled through a tree structure or equivalent filtration rending passage of time and resolution of uncertainty explicit, 2 budget feasibility is no longer defined as affordability but through explicit trading of financial instruments. Financial instruments are used to allow insurance and inter temporal wealth transfers across spot markets at each nodes of the tree. Economic agents face a sequence of budget sets, one at each date state. Item 2 introduces the concept of incomplete markets, formulated in terms of net trade, the budget set is contained in a half space intersecting the positive cone of contingent goods at zero net trade only this is called absence of arbitrage . This is because without transaction cost agents will demand an infinite amount of any trade promising positive consumption in some state and no negative net trade against that in any other good and state. This half space, containing the budget set and separating it from the free lunch cone, corresponds to a half line of positive prices. However potentially if not enough instruments are present, the full half space may not be spanned by trading the instruments and the budgets set may be strictly smaller. In such a configuration markets are said to be incomplete, and there are several ways to separate the budget set from the positive cone sometimes called the free lunch cone . This means that several price systems become admissible. At a Radner equilibrium like the Arrow Debreu equilibrium under uncertainty, perfect consensual foresight is used.

Infobox equilibrium name Correlated equilibrium supersetof Nash equilibrium discoverer Robert Aumann example Chicken game Chicken In game theory , a correlated equilibrium is a solution concept that is more general than the well known Nash equilibrium . It was first discussed by mathematician Robert Aumann 1974 . The idea is that each player chooses his her action according to his her observation of the value of the same public signal. A strategy assigns an action to every possible observation a player can make. If no player would want to deviate from the recommended strategy assuming the others don t deviate , the distribution is called a correlated equilibrium.

Equilibrium isotope fractionation is the partial separation of isotopes between two or more substances in chemical equilibrium . Equilibrium fractionation is strongest at low temperatures, and along with kinetic isotope effect kinetic isotope effects forms the basis of the most widely used isotopic paleothermometer paleothermometers or proxy climate climate proxies deuterium D H and oxygen isotope ratio cycle sup 18 sup O sup 16 sup O records from ice cores , and sup 18 sup O sup 16 sup O records from calcium carbonate. It is thus important for the construction of geologic temperature record geologic temperature records . ref name Urey 1947 cite journal author H. C. Urey year 1947 journal J. Chem.
