Dynare forums

Dear professor jpfeifer:
When I run pass_through_two_two.mod file in dynare, there is a trouble I don't know how to solve it. The
error information coming up with the following message:
There are 3 eigenvalue(s) larger than 1 in modulus
for 4 forward-looking variable(s)

The rank condition ISN'T verified!

please guide me

Run model_diagnostics to see that there is still a collinearity issue in your model.

Dear professor jpfeifer:
Thank you very much for your help！Under the guidance of you, I did it and I received the following message:
>> model_diagnostics(M_,options_,oo_)
model_diagnostic: the Jacobian of the static model is singular
there is 3 colinear relationships between the variables and the equations
Relation 1
Colinear variables:

The presence of a singularity problem typically indicates that there is one
redundant equation entered in the model block, while another non-redundant equation
is missing. The problem often derives from Walras Law.

what should I do now, please help me

Find the missing and redundant equations and interchange them.

but I can't find that. I think every thing is ok, but I don't know why I receive this error !!

Dear professor jpfeifer:
I noticed that one of my equations was incorrect and I corrected it (I used positive instead of negative in one of my equations) , after that my Blanchard Kan error disappeared and I could run my code and received outputs. But still when I use the command that u introduced me "model_diagnostics(M_,options_,oo_)" I receive this:
Relation 1
Colinear equations
7 10 12 20

Relation 2
Colinear equations
7 10 12 20

Relation 3

Relation 4

The presence of a singularity problem typically indicates that there is one
redundant equation entered in the model block, while another non-redundant equation
is missing. The problem often derives from Walras Law.
----------------------------------------------------
Do u think my model still has problem or my problem has solved?
Any advice will be appreciated.

Thank you so much!

Please provide the updated codes.

Dear Johannes,

Thank you for your answer.
I will email them for you

Your model now has a bunch of unit roots that give rise the warning about collinearity. If the unit roots are desired, your model is fine now.

Dear Johannes
Thank you so much
Best regards

Hello, I'm new to dynare and I'm having troubles with my model. I'm trying to replicate the SAMBA (2011 version), which is the Brazilian central Bank model. My dynare version is 4.4.3.
It is giving these errors : Blanchard Kahn conditions are not satisfied: indeterminacy

and : There are 22 eigenvalue(s) larger than 1 in modulus
for 28 forward-looking variable(s)

I've used the model_diagnostics(M_,options_,oo_) command but now it is not working. Does someone now why it isn't working? (it just doesn't do it).

Does anyone now how I could solve this problem???

Thank you!!

Given the difference in roots, there seems to be a fundamental timing problem. Check your predetermined states whether you assigned the correct timing. See the manual for details.

thank you for your reply! But do you have any guesses of why the model_diagnostics(M_,options_,oo_) command is not working?

What is the error message?
