''A clarifying note on converting to log-deviations from the steady state''
( 2008, Vol. 3 No.50 )
 
 
The paper discusses the mathematical background and several alternative strategies of converting equations as typically found in dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models into log-deviations from the steady state form. Guidance is provided on when to use which computational strategy. More examples with detailed derivations and a simple Maple program to automate the conversion are made available online.
