    • Nonlinear and Complex Dynamics in Real Systems 

      Barnett, William A.; Serletis, Apostolos; Serletis, Demitre (De Gruyter, 2006-06-01)
      In this article we provide a review of the literature with respect to fluctuations in real systems and chaos. In doing so, we contrast the order and organization hypothesis of real systems to nonlinear chaotic dynamics and ...
    • Fixed-Point-Like Theorems on Subspaces 

      Bich, Philippe; Cornet, Bernard (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2004-08-26)
      We prove a fixed-point-like theorem for multivalued mappings defined on the finite Cartesian product of Grassmannian manifolds and convex sets. Our result generalizes two different kinds of theorems: the fixed-point-like ...
    • A nonparametric adjustment for tests of changing mean 

      Juhl, Ted P. (Economics Bulletin, 2004)
      When testing for a change in mean of a time series, the null hypothesis is no change in mean. However, a change in mean causes a bias in the estimation of serial correlation parameters. This bias can cause nonmonotonic ...
    • Intertemporally non−separable monetary−asset risk adjustment and aggregation 

      Barnett, William A.; Wu, Shu (Economics Bulletin, 2004)
      Modern aggregation theory and index number theory were introduced into monetary aggregation by Barnett (1980). The widely used Divisia monetary aggregates were based upon that paper. A key result upon which the rest of the ...
    • A note on nonidentification in truncated sampling distribution estimation 

      Barnett, William A.; Seck, Ousmane (Economics Bulletin, 2010-06-19)
      Theoretical constraints on economic model parameters often are in the form of inequality restrictions. For example, many theoretical results are in the form of monotonicity or nonnegativity restrictions. Inequality constraints ...
    • A ffine Regime-Switching Models for Interest Rate Term Structure 

      Wu, Shu; Zeng, Yong (American Mathematical Society, 2004)
      To model the impact of the business cycle, this paper develops a tractable dynamic term structure model under diffusion and regime shifts with time varying transition probabilities. The model offers flexible parameterization of ...
    • Panel Data Analysis of Regulatory Factors Shaping Environmental Performance 

      Earnhart, Dietrich H. (President and Fellows of Harvard College and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006-03-13)
      This paper analyzes the regulatory factors shaping environmental performance at individual polluting facilities. In particular, it examines the influence of actual government interventions, namely, inspections and enforcement ...
    • A New Forecasting Model for USD/CNY Exchange Rate 

      Cai, Zongwu; Chen, Linna; Fang, Ying (De Gruyter, 2012-09-18)
      This paper models the return series of USD/CNY exchange rate by considering the conditional mean and conditional volatility simultaneously. An index type functional-coefficient model is adopted to model the conditional ...
    • The New Divisia Monetary Aggregates 

      Barnett, William A.; Offenbacher, Edward K.; Spindt, Paul A. (University of Chicago Press, 1984-12-01)
    • Pollak and Wachter on the Household Production Function Approach 

      Barnett, William A. (University of Chicago Press, 1977-10-01)
    • The Effects of Consumer Bliss on Welfare Economics 

      Barnett, William A. (ME Sharpe, 1973-03-01)
      This article explores the impact of consumer satiation on the functioning of a private ownership economy free from market imperfections. Kenneth Arrow has proved that consumer satiability has no effect on the Pareto ...
    • Measurement Error in Monetary Aggregates:  A Markov Switching Factor Approach 

      Barnett, William A.; Chauvet, Marcelle; Tierney, Heather L. R. (Cambridge University Press, 2009-09-01)
      This paper compares the different dynamics of the simple-sum monetary aggregates and the Divisia monetary aggregate indices over time, over the business cycle, and across high and low inflation and interest-rate phases. ...
    • Introduction to Measurement with Theory 

      Barnett, William A.; Diewert, W. Erwin; Zellner, Arnold (Cambridge University Press, 2009-09-01)
      This paper is the introduction to the Macroeconomic Dynamics Special Issue on Measurement with Theory. The Guest Editors of the special issue are William A. Barnett, W. Erwin Diewert, Shigeru Iwata, and Arnold Zellner. The ...
    • An Interview with Franco Modigliani 

      Barnett, William A.; Solow, Robert (Cambridge University Press, 2000-06-01)
      Franco Modigliani's contributions in economics and finance have transformed both fields. Although many other major contributions in those fields have come and gone, Modigliani's contributions seem to grow in importance ...
    • Admissible Clustering of Aggregator Components:  A Necessary and Sufficient Stochastic Semi-Nonparametric Test for Weak Separability 

      Barnett, William A.; Peretti, Philippe De (Cambridge University Press, 2009-09-01)
      In aggregation theory, the admissibility condition for clustering components to be aggregated is blockwise weak separability, which also is the condition needed to separate out sectors of the economy. Although weak ...
    • Editor's Announcement:  The Journal's New Supplement Series 

      Barnett, William A. (Cambridge University Press, 2007-02-01)
      Beginning in 2007, this journal will publish a new series of supplements for special issues. This new supplements series is intended to remove some special issues from the regular-issues space budget and thereby help to ...
    • The Exact Theoretical Rational Expectations Monetary Aggregate 

      Barnett, William A.; Hinich, Melvin J.; Yue, Piyu (Cambridge University Press, 2000-06-01)
      In aggregation theory, index numbers are judged relative to their ability to track the exact aggregator functions nested within the economy's structure. We compare two statistical index numbers—the Divisia monetary aggregate ...
    • Editor's Preface to the Dialogue Series 

      Barnett, William A. (Cambridge University Press, 1999-03-01)
      This dialogue is the first to appear in Macroeconomic Dynamics. Other dialogues on topics of importance to macroeconomics will appear occasionally in this journal. Unlike interviews appearing in the MD Interview series, ...
