A common set of mathematical tools underlies dynamic optimisation, dynamic estimation, and filtering. In \u003cem\u003eRecursive Models of Dynamic Linear Economies\u003c\/em\u003e, Lars Peter Hansen and Thomas Sargent use these tools to create a class of econometrically tractable models of prices and quantities. They present examples from microeconomics, macroeconomics, and asset pricing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe models are cast in terms of a representative consumer. While Hansen and Sargent demonstrate the analytical benefits acquired when an analysis with a representative consumer is possible, they also characterise the restrictiveness of assumptions under which a representative household justifies a purely aggregative analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHansen and Sargent unite economic theory with a workable econometrics while going beyond and beneath demand and supply curves for dynamic economies. They construct and apply competitive equilibria for a class of linear-quadratic-Gaussian dynamic economies with complete markets.
