Collocation method with transition matrices

 

We consider structural breaks for transition matrix and the corresponding parameters.

 

We continue to consider non-aggregate model:

 

but

for the first group of period of time

 

for the second group of period of time

.

.

.

 for the ns-th group of period of time.

 

Here, we also change the corresponding parameterfs across breaks.

 

When we calculate policy functions for each group, we use collocation method.
