Solving Life Cycle Models, Optimal Age-Dependent Unemployment Insurance, and Adaptive Beliefs in a Real Business Cycle Model

  • This dissertation consists of three essays, which all rely on dynamic optimization in discrete time. The first essay is called 'Solving Life Cycle Models' and deals with the methodology of solving life-cycle models. The second essay is called 'Optimal Age-Dependent Unemployment Insurance', and investigates optimal unemployment insurance in a life-cycle model in partial equilibrium with wealth accumulation, and job search. The third essay is called 'Adaptive Beliefs in a Real Business Cycle Model' and investigates how the business cycle properties of a standard macroeconomic model change when agents extrapolate recent changes in productivity into the future.
