Blog Post: Falkenblog: Models aren't Optional

Posted: 23 Jun 2013 08:17 PM PDT

Models get a bad break, and the key is remembering the golden mean: moderation in all things. Macroeconomics, String Theory, Climate studies, all produce highly complicated models that are presented by our best academics as being thoroughly vetted and informative. Yet, for predictions in the real world, they stink. This leads to people saying models are all garbage, and we should all be...

Published / Preprint: Non-Equivalent Beliefs and Subjective Equilibrium Bubbles. (arXiv:1306.5082v1 [q-fin.GN])

Posted: 23 Jun 2013 05:38 PM PDT

This paper develops a dynamic equilibrium model where agents exhibit a strong form of belief heterogeneity: they disagree about zero probability events. It is shown that, somewhat surprisingly, equilibrium exists in this setting, and that the disagreement about nullsets naturally leads to equilibrium asset pricing bubbles. The bubbles are subjective in the sense that they are perceived by some...

This result, which---although undoubtedly correct---has been regarded by many as counterintuitive and even pathological, stems from the implicit assumption that the long-term discount function has an exponential tail. We revisit the problem in the setting of modern interest rate theory, and...

Published / Preprint: Dynamic Assessment Indices. (arXiv:1306.5198v1 [math.PR])

Posted: 23 Jun 2013 05:38 PM PDT

This paper provides a unified framework, which allows, in particular, to study the structure of dynamic monetary risk measures and dynamic acceptability indices. The main mathematical tool, which we use here, and which allows us to significantly generalize existing results is the theory of $L^0$-modules. In the first part of the paper we develop the general theory and provide a...
