Ebook Sum rules and the Szego condition for Jacobi matrices

Submitted by antoq on Sat, 12/06/2008 - 08:31

We consider Jacobi matrices J with real b_n on the diagonal, positive a_n on the next two diagonals, and with u'(x) the density of the absolutely continuous part of the spectral measure. In particular, we are interested in compact perturbations of the free matrix J_0, that is, such that the a_n go to 1 and b_n go to 0. We study the Case sum rules for such matrices. These are trace formulae relating sums involving the a_n's and b_n's on one side and certain quantities in terms of the spectral measure on the other. We establish situations where the sum rules are valid, extending results of Case and Killip-Simon.

Ebook Do when and where matter? Initial labor market conditions and immigrant earnings

Submitted by puput on Mon, 03/22/2010 - 04:25

Immigrants on average perform worse than natives in the labor markets of most Western countries (OECD 2001). This has caused researchers to search for explanations to the gap between immigrants and the native population, and to differences across immigrant groups. On the latter topic, some studies have considered the possibility that labor market conditions at the time of immigration may have a long-term impact on earnings and employment.

There are two basic aspects of this issue. First, do cohorts arriving in a time of good prospects in the national labor market fare better compared to immigrants arriving in a time of bad prospects? Second, does the long-term success differ between people who arrive at the same time, but encounter different local labor market conditions?

Ebook Exchange Rates and Fundamentals: Is there a Role for Nonlinearities in Real Time?

Submitted by puput on Mon, 01/17/2011 - 04:27

One of the most frequently studied puzzles in international monetary economics is the failure of standard linear monetary models of exchange rates to forecast variations in the exchange rates in the short run. Ever since Meese and Rogoff’s (1983) work on out-of-sample forecast comparison of varieties of monetary models of exchange rates and naïve random walk model, a consensus view has emerged that monetary models are largely unsuccessful in forecasting exchange rates, at least in the short term. This literature casts doubts about the suitability of economic models based on fundamentals in forecasting exchange rates (see Cheung and Chinn, 2001, or Marsh, Cheung and Chinn, 2004) for evidence based on surveys).
