Dynamicstochasticgeneralequilibrium modeling abbreviated DSGE or sometimes SDGE or DGE is a branch of applied generalequilibrium theory that is influential in contemporary macroeconomics . 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 ..., 2008, pp. 15 16 .

In mathematical economics , applied generalequilibrium AGE models were pioneered by Herbert Scarf at Yale University in 1967, in two papers, and a follow up book with Terje Hansen in 1973, with the aim of empirically estimating the Arrow Debreu model of generalequilibrium theory with empirical data, to provide a general method for the explicit numerical solution of the neoclassical model Scarf with Hansen 1973 1 Scarf s method iterated a sequence of simplical subdivisions which would generate a decreasing sequence of simplices around any solution of the generalequilibrium problem.

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. It is assumed that a firm s objective is to maximize Profit economics profit given the demand for its products, and given the production technology that is available to it.

Stochastic calculus is a branch of mathematics that operates on stochastic process es. It allows a consistent theory of integration to be defined for integrals of stochastic processes with respect to stochastic processes. It is used to model systems that behave randomly. The best known stochastic process to which stochastic calculus is applied is the Wiener process named in honor of Norbert Wiener , which is used for modeling Brownian motion as described by Louis Bachelier in 1900 and by Albert Einstein in 1905 and other physical diffusion processes in space of particles subject to random forces. Since the 1970s, the Wiener process has been widely applied in financial mathematics and economics to model the evolution in time of stock prices and bond interest rates. The main flavours of stochastic calculus are the It calculus and its variational relative the Malliavin calculus . For technical reasons the It integral is the most useful for general classes of processes but the related Stratonovich integral is frequently useful in problem formulation particularly in engineering disciplines. The Stratonovich integral can readily be expressed in terms of the It integral. The main benefit of the Stratonovich integral is that it obeys the usual chain rule and does therefore not require It s lemma . This enables problems to be expressed in a co ordinate system invariant form, which is invaluable when developing stochastic calculus on manifolds other than R sup n sup .

tone date April 2011 Radiative equilibrium is one of the several requirements for thermodynamic equilibrium , but it can occur in the absence of thermodynamic equilibrium. There are various types of radiative equilibrium, which is itself a kind of dynamicequilibrium . Definitions of radiative equilibrium There are several types of radiative equilibrium.

They define pointwise monochromatic radiative equilibrium by math nabla cdot mathbf F nu 0 math at every point of the region that is in radiative equilibrium. They define pointwise radiative equilibrium by math h int 0 infty h nu d nu 0 math at every point of the region that is in radiative equilibrium. This means that, at every point of the region of space that is in pointwise radiative equilibrium, the total, for all frequencies of radiation, interconversion of energy between thermal radiation and energy content in matter is nil. Pointwise radiative equilibrium is closely related to Prevost s absolute radiative equilibrium. Mihalas and Weibel Mihalas ... the matter is not moving. They also consider moving media.

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.
