function bvar = dsgevar_posterior_density(deep)
% This function characterizes the posterior distribution of a bvar with
% a dsge prior (as in Del Negro and Schorfheide 2003) for a given value
% of the deep parameters (structural parameters + the size of the
% shocks + dsge_prior_weight).
%
% INPUTS
% deep: [double] a vector with the deep parameters.
%
% OUTPUTS
% bvar: a matlab structure with prior and posterior densities.

% ALGORITHM
