Economic Dynamics, Second Edition: Theory and Computation: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Economic Dynamics, Second Edition: Theory and Computation" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The second edition of a rigorous and example-driven introduction to topics in economic dynamics that emphasizes techniques for modeling dynamic systems.This text provides an introduction to the modern theory of economic dynamics, with emphasis on mathematical and computational techniques for modeling dynamic systems. Written to be both rigorous and engaging, the book shows how sound understanding of the underlying theory leads to effective algorithms for solving real-world problems. The material makes extensive use of programming examples to illustrate ideas, bringing to life the abstract concepts in the text. Key topics include algorithms and scientific computing, simulation, Markov models, and dynamic programming. Part I introduces fundamentals and part II covers more advanced material. This second edition has been thoroughly updated, drawing on recent research in the field.New for the second edition:- Programming-language agnostic presentation using pseudocode.- New chapter 1 covering conceptual issues concerning Markov chains such as ergodicity and stability.- New focus in chapter 2 on algorithms and techniques for program design and high-performance computing.- New focus on household problems rather than optimal growth in material on dynamic programming.- Solutions to many exercises, code, and other resources available on a supplementary website.

Preface
Aims and Scope

The aim of this book is to teach foundational topics in stochastic dynamics such as stability, ergodicity, and dynamic programming, with applications from economics and finance. As we travel down this path, we will delve into a variety of related fields, including simulation and numerical methods, fixed point theory, stochastic process theory, function approximation, and coupling.

In writing the book I had two main goals. First, I wanted to show that sound understanding of relevant mathematical concepts leads to effective algorithms for solving real world problems. Second, I wanted the book to be enjoyable to read, with an emphasis on building intuition. Hence the material is driven by examplesI believe the fastest way to grasp a new concept is through studying examplesand makes extensive use of programming to illustrate ideas. Running simulations and computing equilibria helps bring abstract concepts to life.

The primary intended audience is advanced undergraduate and, especially, beginning graduate students in economics. However, the techniques discussed in the second half of the book add some shiny new toys to the standard tool kit used for economic modeling, and as such they should be of interest to advanced graduate students and researchers. The book is as self-contained as possible, given space constraints.

Part I of the book covers material that all well-rounded graduate students should know. The style is relatively mathematical, and those who find the going hard might start by working through the exercises in appendix A. Part II is significantly more challenging. In designing the text it was not my intention that all of those who read part I should go on to read part II. Rather, part II is written for researchers and graduate students with a particular interest in technical problems. Those who do read the majority of part II will gain a very strong understanding of infinite-horizon dynamic programming and (nonlinear) stochastic models.

How does this book differ from other textbooks? There are several books on computational macroeconomics and macrodynamics that treat related topics. In comparison, this book is not specific to macroeconomics. It should be of interest to (at least some) people working in microeconomics, operations research, and finance. Second, computation and theory are tightly integrated. When numerical methods are discussed, I have tried to emphasize mathematical analysis of the algorithms. Readers will acquire a strong knowledge of the probabilistic and function-analytic framework that underlies proposed solutions.

Like any text containing a significant amount of mathematics, the notation piles up thick and fast. To aid readers I have worked hard to keep notation minimal and consistent. Uppercase symbols such as Aand Busually refer to sets, while lowercase symbols such as xand yare elements of these sets. Functions use uppercase and lowercase symbols such as f, g,
