In the field of economic analysis, computability in the formation
of economic hypotheses is seen as the way forward. In this book,
Professor Velupillai implements a theoretical research program
along these lines. Choice theory, learning rational expectations
equlibria, the persistence of adaptive behaviour, arithmetical
games, aspects of production theory, and economic dynamics are
given recursion theoretic (i.e. computable) interpretations. These
interpretations lead to new kinds of questions being posed by the
economic theorist. In particular, recurison theoretic decision
problems replace standard optimisation paradigms in economic
analysis. Economic theoretic questions, posed
recursion-theoretically, lead to answers that are ambiguous:
undecidable choices, uncomputable learning processes, and
algorithmically unplayable games become standard answers. Professor
Velupillai argues that a recursion theoretic formalisation of
economic analysisComputable Economicsmakes the subject
intrinsically inductive and computational.
