David Evans is an Associate Professor of Economics in the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Oregon . He conducts research on computational macroeconomics, dynamic stochastic general-equilibrium (DSGE) modelling, and optimal fiscal and monetary policy, with a particular emphasis on economies populated by heterogeneous agents. Research Focus Professor Evans’s current agenda centres on developing numerical methods to approximate equilibria in DSGE models that feature large numbers of heterogeneous households or firms. His early applications address pressing questions in optimal fiscal policy—namely, how debt levels, labour-tax rates, and capital-tax rates should evolve over the business cycle and in the long run when inequality is explicitly taken into account. Additional collaborative work explores how fiscal-hedging motives should influence long-term debt structure and tax design. Publications Overview Between 2014 and 2023, Evans has produced a steady stream of articles that advance both theoretical and computational frontiers. Collectively, these works span four broad themes: (1) optimal taxation and public debt management under incomplete markets; (2) the macroeconomic implications of household heterogeneity and inequality; (3) bounded rationality and learning in macroeconomic settings; and (4) novel solution techniques—especially perturbation methods—for high-dimensional heterogeneous-agent models.
