Bellman Equation \[V(y) = \underset{x}{max} F(x,y) + \beta v(y)\]
Technologies in Neoclassical Growth Investment: \[k_(t+1) = (1-\delta)k_t + s_t\] Production: \[y = f(k,l)\] Output: \[c_t + i_t \le y_t\]
Arrow-Debreu Equilibrium Time-Zero Trading \[\sum_{t=0}^{\infty}p_t * c_t \le [\sum_{t=0}^{\infty}p_t * e_t \forall i\]

\[\Pi (x)\] Set of feasible plans: \[\{\bar{x}: x_{t+1} \in \gamma( x_t) \forall t\}\]

Arrow Securities \[a_{t+1}^i (s^t, s_{t+1}) \in R\] The number of units of consumption an agent purchases in a given history contingent on a future realization of a state.
Aggregate State Budget Constraint \[c_t^i(s^t) + \sum_{s_{t+1}\in S} q_t a^i_{t+1} \le e_t^i(s^t) + a_t^i(s^t)\]

Stochastic Sequential Trading Equilibrium Allocations of consumptions and assets, and arrow prices such that agents optimize subject to budget constraint and debt limit, and markets clear: \[c^i(s^t) = e^i(s^t)\] \[a_{t+1}^i(s^t, s_{t+1}) = 0\]
Stochastic Contracting Mapping Assumptions 1. Gamma is non-empty and measurable given some probability space. 2. F is measurable and bounded, and the limit of the sum of its lifetime expectations exists (i.e. there is a finite lifetime utility value)
Big K, Little k Trick K as aggregate capital stock, k as individual Price systems as functions of K s.t. \[V(k,K) = u(R(K)k + w(K)n - k^\prime) + \beta V(k^\prime, K^\prime)\] s.t. \[K^\prime = G(K)\]
Recursive Competitive Equilibrium Set of pricing functions, law of motion for aggregate capital, household value functions and decision rule, and firm decision rules such that: 1. Given prices and the law of motion, the value and policy function solve the optimization problem. 2. Given prices, firms optimize 3. Markets clear: Capital and labor supply and demand, and consistency between policy function and law of motion.
Rational Expectations \[g(K,K) = G(K)\] Consistency Condition
Stochastic NGM Stochastic parameters are state variables, and choice variables must be defined in terms of them.
Intratemporal Labor Decision \[u_c(c, l)F_n(k,n) = u_l(c,l)\]
