Scaling relationships (where body size features as the independent variable) and power-law
distributions are commonly reported in ecological systems. In this review we analyze scaling …

In recent years, physicists have started applying concepts and methods of statistical physics
to study economic problems. The word “Econophysics” is sometimes used to refer to this …

This book concerns the use of concepts from statistical physics in the description of financial
systems. The authors illustrate the scaling concepts used in probability theory, critical …

This text provides an introduction to the exciting new developments in chaos and related
topics in nonlinear dynamics, including the detection and quantification of chaos in …

We develop a parsimonious model of innovation to confront firm-level evidence. It captures
the dynamics of individual heterogeneous firms, describes the behavior of an industry with …

We use methods of random matrix theory to analyze the cross-correlation matrix C of stock
price changes of the largest 1000 US companies for the 2-year period 1994–1995. We find …

The Charter of Fundamental Rights is a legal document that protects individuals and legal
entities from actions that disregard fundamental rights. It covers personal, civic, political …

We study the statistical properties of volatility, measured by locally averaging over a time
window T, the absolute value of price changes over a short time interval Δ t. We analyze the …

Can physics be an appropriate framework for the understanding of ecological science? Most
ecologists would probably agree that there is little relation between the complexity of natural …

In recent years network analysis has been applied in archaeological research to examine
the structure of archaeological relationships of whatever sort. However, these …
