General equilibrium models and homotopy methods

Article Abstract:

Homotopy methods are the only theoretically sound algorithms for computing general equilibria models. These methods play a particularly important role in the analysis of large equilibrium models that can be used to anticipate changes in an economy following policy changes or shock events. In addition, homotopy methods are also valuable in the study of market instabilities, comparative statics, tatonnement, and the multiplicity of equilibria.
