    Weseda Economic Papers   40 ( 40 ) 13 - 26  2001.12

     View Summary

    This paper presents a new perspective on the generating mechanism of the business cycle. In the new perspective the economic system has a stable equilibrium and gives rise to undulatory processes with the help of small disturbances. But a certain once-and-for-all shock can trigger a persistent periodic oscillation. This corresponds to the case of a hard generation oscillation in the dynamical systems theory. It is shown that a subcritical Hopf bifurcation is useful to explain such a phenomenon. Existing business cycle models can be reinterpreted in the new perspective. As examples of application Kaldor's model and Benassy's model are considered.

     View Summary

    This paper investigates the political business cycle when interest group pressure on fiscal policy is incorporated. Two cases are investigated; one in which only autonomous investment is included and one in which a Kaldor-type induced investment function is incorporated. In both cases chaotic fluctuations can emerge even when the politically motivated fiscal ''forcing term'' is fairly small.

     View Summary

    We investigate thoroughly Schinasi's business cycle model, a disequilibrium IS-LM model augmented by a government budget constraint, in the case of pure money financing. The model has the two- and three-dimensional versions. For the former case, we prove rigorously the existence of limit cycles by the Poincaré-Bendixson theorem and show that three variables of the model, money supply, output and interest rate, correspond to the leading, coincident and lagging indicators of the usual business index, respectively. For the latter case, closed orbits are considered by the Hopf bifurcation theorem and imagination. Finally, the results obtained in the two- and three-dimensional cases are compared. © 1994.

  • BOUNDEDNESS OF ECONOMIC VARIABLES AND OLECH THEOREM

    K SASAKURA

    JOURNAL OF ECONOMICS-ZEITSCHRIFT FUR NATIONALOKONOMIE   56 ( 2 ) 209 - 217  1992  [Refereed]

     View Summary

    On the basis of Olech's theorem we derive conditions on which any solution path starting from an arbitrary initial point in a two-dimensional bounded region ultimately converges to a unique equilibrium point without escaping from the region during a transition period. Then, using the result, we render one proposition more exact from the economic point of view.

     View Summary

    (1) One Dimensional Models
    Chaos occurs in a nonlinear cobweb model with normal demand and supply, naive expectations and adaptive production adjustment. We demonstrates the possibility that chaotic fluctuations may be preferable to a steady state for a simple macro disequilibrium model in which inventory can be chaotically fluctuated.
    (2) High Dimensional Models
    We investigate the global dynamics of two-dimensional Diamond-type overlapping generations model extended to allow for government intervention. We identify conditions under which transverse homoclinic points to the golden rule steady state are generated. We examine by mean of analytical method and numerical simulations the properties of three-dimensional Kaldor-type business cycle models in which a parameter is fluctuated by noise. It is shown that noise may not obscure the underling structures, but also reveal the hidden structures.
    (3) New Numerical Approximation Schemes
    Composition methods for autonomous stochastic differential equations (SDEs) are formulated to produce numerical approximation schemes for the equations. The new schemes are advantageous to preserve the special character of SDEs numerically and are useful for approximations of the solutions to stochastic nonlinear equations
    (4) Alternative Approaches and Models
    We investigate various alternative approaches and models. For example, percolation theory is employed to model stock price fluctuations.

  • 非線形関数を用いた景気循環理論の研究

    1997  

     View Summary

    景気循環理論は大きく外生的理論と内生的理論に分かれる。前者では通常線形方程式モデルが用いられるが、モデルの均衡点は安定である。もし外力がなければ、経済は均衡点から離れてもやがてはまたその均衡点に戻ることになる。そのようなモデルに周期的な動き(景気循環)が発生するためには外力、特に不規則衝撃が必要とされてきた。それに対して後者のモデルは非線形方程式からなり、その均衡点は不安定である。経済は不安定な均衡点から次第に離れていくがモデルの非線形性から発散することはない。モデルが2次元の微分方程式系ならば、ポアンカレ=ベンディクソンの定理を適用することにより、外力がなくとも周期解(景気循環)の存在を厳密に示すことができる。 従来の景気循環理論は以上のような2つの考え方が対立した形で発展してきた。しかしながら、そのどちらが現実をより正確に描写しているかは実証的にも極めて難しい問題である。そこで、両者を二者択一的にとらえるのではなく、それらを統合するようなモデルの可能性を探ることを本研究における主な目的とした。その解決の鍵はポアンカレ=ベンディクソンの定理とホップ分岐定理の併用にある。この2つの定理はいずれも内生的理論を基礎付ける手段として単独で用いられてきたが、併用するという考え方は少なくとも景気循環理論においてはなかったと思われる。こうして得られたモデルでは、均衡点は安定であるにもかかわらず、そのまわりに安定な周期解(リミットサイクル)が存在する。そして経済の初期状況によって、外生的理論あるいは内生的理論が想定するどちらの状況でも記述可能となる。 1997年度ではこの考え方を以下の研究成果として発表した。・ 「経済動学の方法(Ⅰ)」『早稲田政治経済学雑誌』第330号、pp.145-188。・ 「経済動学の方法(Ⅱ)」『早稲田政治経済学雑誌』第331号、pp.223-254。
