We discuss a fully dynamical microeconomic model where inflation appears as the response of an unstable system to stochastic noise and/or time discretisation of the dynamics. In the model economic agents fix prices and production volumes following simple, robust, suboptimal rules. A global parameter

β¦ Synopsis
This paper examines the origin of cyclical motion in a class of deterministic infinite horizon problems that arise in dynamic economics. For this class of problems the optimal solution converges to a unique equilibrium point. Conditions are given under which the motion in a β’ neighbourhood of the equilibrium point is cyclical. These conditions involve certain asymmetric stock-flow interaction terms that arise in the local equations of motion about the equilibrium point. The results are used to show how cyclical motion can arise in a rational expectations equilibrium for a competitive industry.

In this paper we investigate the relationship between the time delay for building investment goods and cycles under the conditions of general equilibrium. We introduce a delay parameter in the spirit of Kalecki into the simplest class of models of growth theory. They encompass a wide range of models
## Abstract A flexible decomposition of a time series into stochastic cycles under possible nonβstationarity is specified, providing both a useful data analysis tool and a very wide model class. A Bayes procedure using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is introduced with a model averaging approach wh
