SYEF: Symposium Statistical Physics of Economic and Financial Systems

SYEF 1: Statistical Physics of Economic and Financial Systems

Thursday, March 21, 2024, 09:30–12:15, H 0105

On a microscopic level, financial and economic systems consist of many individual agents whose investment decisions and business interactions lead to complex emergent phenomena such as crises and cooperation. Macroscopically, these systems are often described by just a few time series; e.g. many individual microscopic trades of one stock in a financial market are represented as a single stock price time series. Both the microscopic and the macroscopic perspective are amenable to the toolbox of physicists and complex systems research: simulations of microscopic agents and the analysis of their emergent behaviour have been a key component of computational physics research and time series analysis methods are wide-spread throughout many areas of physics. This symposium therefore highlights some of the recent advances in modelling and data-driven approaches of econophysics and discusses how they can help to solve problems in classical economics research.
