The Effect of Data Revisions on the Basic New Keynesian Model

This paper proposes an extended version of the basic New Keynesian monetary (NKM) model which contemplates revision processes of output and inflation data in order to assess the importance of data revisions on the estimated monetary policy rule parameters and the transmission of policy shocks. Our empirical evidence based on a structural econometric approach suggests that although the initial announcements of output and inflation are not rational forecasts of revised output and inflation data, ignoring the presence of non well-behaved revision processes may not be a serious drawback in the analysis of monetary policy in this framework. However, the transmission of inflation-push shocks is largely affected by considering data revisions. The latter being especially true when the nominal stickiness parameter is estimated taking into account data revision processes.

The impact of liberalizing cost-saharing on basic models of network formation

This paper studies the impact of "liberalizing " the cost-sharing of links on some basic models of network formation. This is done in a setting where both doubly supported and singly supported links are possible, and which includes the two seminal models of network formation by Jackson and Wolinsky and Bala and Goyal as extreme cases. In this setting, the notion of pairwise stability is extended and it is proved that liberalizing cost-sharing for doubly supported links widens the range of values of the parameters where the efficient networks formed by such type of links are pairwise stable, while the range of values of the parameters where the efficient networks formed by singly supported links are pairwise stable shrinks, but the region where the latter are e¢ cient and pairwise stable remains the same.

Desarrollo de un gestor de conexión con facebook para aplicación de mensajeria instantanea.

[EN]Until May 2015, an application for Linux KDE desktops called KDE-Telepathy had the possibility of adding Facebook accounts in order to talk to friends through an XMPP Gateway. After Facebook’s announcement of the closure of this Gateway, this project will try to explain the development process of a new connection manager. This fact generates the need of an unofficial alternative which Facebook does not provide. Along the different sections, there will be explained how to implement the most basic functions a connection manager must have, like: a contact list, sending or receiving messages. Meanwhile, there will be involved different solutions part of the Facebook’s official infrastructure, but also, some that are not.

Bessel functions and equations of mathematical physics

The aim of this dissertation is to introduce Bessel functions to the reader, as well as studying some of their properties. Moreover, the final goal of this document is to present the most well- known applications of Bessel functions in physics.
