The emitter resistor in a common emitter configuration provides negative feedback to the transistor, reducing both its voltage gain and distortion.
The gain of a common-emitter amplifier is collector resistor divided by emitter resistor, or hFe, whichever is less. Since hFe depends on temperature, designing the amplifier to be dependent on resistance ratio makes it more stable. As such, the emitter resistance serves to stabilize the amplifier.
The emitter resistor is connected to ground(in the case of an rc coupled amplifier).Also input signal applied at the base is grounded.Then the emitter resistor forms a feedback to the input signal (through the ground return path).So emitter resistor is also called feedback resistor.
Resistor placed in the emitter lead of a transistor circuit to minimize the effects of temperature on the emitter-base junction resistance.
Kirchoff's current law states that the current in every point in a series circuit is the same. In the case of a transistor in common emitter configuration, you can take advantage of that fact and state that the collector current is equal to the emitter current. The truth is somewhat different, because the gain of the transistor is not infinity, so the base current must be added to the emitter current. With a reasonably high gain, however, you can ignore the base current. Consider that the emitter voltage is related to the base voltage by the forward drop of the base-emitter junction, about 0.7 volts, and the collector and emitter currents are the same. Now look at the collector and emitter resistors. If the currents are the same, and the voltage across the emitter resistor is known, then you know the voltage across the collector resistor as well. This is an application of both Kirchoff's and Ohm's laws. The gain, then, of this amplifer is collector resistance divided by emitter resistance. It is an inverting amplier in this configuration. In some configurations, the emitter resistor is zero ohms. This does not mean the gain is infinity - it now means that the gain is limited by the gain of the transistor, which it is anyway - the emitter resistor is used to stabilize the gain and reduce dependency on individual transistor gains, which do vary.

emitter collects output current produced in resister Wrong. An emitter in a semiconductor emits majority current carriers (electrons or holes) into the junction between it and the base..

I think you mean a common emitter amplifier, which is an amplifier of voltage. Emitter-follower or common collector amplifiers are used to match impedances, or to amplify power or current. The emitter-follower is a type of common emitter circuit that has a resistor between the emitter and ground. The output signal is taken from the point between the emitter and its resistor.

An emitter resistor in a common emitter circuit will cause the stage to experience the effects of degenerative feedback if it is unbypassed. The degenerative feedback reduces gain. This is probably the primary effect in the described circuit.
The emitter resistor places limits on the required gain, and temperature stabilizes the transistor. Without it, gain is hFe, but that is variable, temperature dependent, and subject to thermal runaway. With it, gain is predictable (collector resistor divided by emitter resistor, though limited by hFe), and temperature stabilized (so long as both resistors have the same temperature coefficient, and so long as the hFe margin is maintained).
Without a bypass capacitor it is just equal to Rc
The emitter bias circuit is called self-bias because the bias voltage across the emitter-resistor is based on the transistor's own characteristics. The bias voltage adjusts itself based on the varying collector current to stabilize the operating point of the transistor. It is a self-adjusting mechanism that helps maintain a stable bias point for the transistor.
