In this introductory paper, we make the linkage between the use of big data and Econophysics, a research field which uses a large amount of data and deals with complex systems. Different approaches such as power laws and complex networks are discussed, as possible frameworks to analyze complex phenomena that could be studied using Econophysics and resorting to big data. Keywords: big data; complexity; networks; stock markets; power laws 1. Introduction Big data has become a very popular expression in recent years, related to the advance of technology which allows, on the one hand, the recovery of a great amount of data, and on the other hand, the analysis of that data, benefiting from the increasing computational capacity of devices.

  • LECTURE 2 - Statistical Ensembles for Jammed Granular States
    LECTURE 2 - Statistical Ensembles for Jammed Granular States Notes based on Henkes, O'Hern and Chakrabory, PRL 99, 038002 (2007), Henkes and Chakraborty , PRE 79, 061301 (2009), and Henkes, PhD thesis, Brandeis Equilibrium - microcanonical to canonical We quickly review the steps one takes in ordinary equilibrium statistical mechanics, in going from the microcanonical to the canonical ensemble. In the microcanonical ensemble, energy is conserved. One assumes that all states with the same total energy E are equally likely, and computes microcanonical averages by averaging observables over all states with the same E, using equal weights. For N particles in a box of volume V , one counts the number number of states Ω(E; V; N) with total energy E. The temperature is defined by 1=T = @S=@E, with S(E) = ln Ω(E) the entropy. Consider now a small subsystem with N particles in volume V , and the subsystem is in contact with a big reservoir with which it can exchange energy. The reservoir contains NR N particles in a volume VR V . The total system of subsystem + reservoir is treated in the microcanonical ensemble. Since energy is additive, the total energy ET = E + ER is fixed. One assumes the subsystem and the reservoir are uncorrelated and so the number of states of the total system factorizes, X ΩT (ET ) = Ω(E)ΩR(ET − E) E One then expands for E ET , ΩR(ET − E) = expfln ΩR(ET ) − [@ ln ΩR=@ET ]Eg ∼ exp{−E=TRg In equilibrium we know that the temperatures of the subsystem and reservoir equilibrate, T = TR, and so if we assume that the probability to find the subsystem with energy E is proportional to the number of states in which the subsystem has energy E and the reservoir has ET − E, then we get the canonical distribution, P (E) ∼ Ω(E) exp{−E=T g Edwards volume ensemble for granular matter Consider a jammed granular system of N rigid, incompressible, particles confined to a box of volume V .

  • Econophysics Research in India in the Last Two Decades
    Econophysics Research in India in the last two Decades Asim Ghosh Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics Division Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics 1/AF Bidhannagar, Kolkata 700 064, India. Abstract We discuss here researches on econophysics done from India in the last two decades. The term ‘econophysics’ was formally coined in India (Kolkata) in 1995. Since then many research papers, books, reviews, etc. have been written by scientists. Many institutions are now involved in this research field and many conferences are being organized there. In this article we give an account (of papers, books, reviews, papers in proceedings volumes etc.) of this research from India. 1 Introduction The subject econophysics is an interdisciplinary research field where the tools of physics are applied to understand the problem of economics. The term ‘econo- physics’ was coined by H. Eugene Stanley in a Kolkata conference on statistical physics in 1995. The research on economics by physicists is not new. There were many physicists who contributed significantly in the development of eco- nomics. For example Daniel Bernoulli, who developed utility-based preferences, was a physicist. Similarly Irving Fisher, who was one of the founders of neo- classical economic theory, was a student of statistical physicist Josiah Willard Gibbs. Also Jan Tinbergen, who won the first Nobel Prize in economics, did his Ph. D. in statistical physics in Leiden university under Paul Ehrenfest. However these physicists (by training) eventually left physics and migrated to economics. The new feature of the developments for the last two decades is that physicists studying the problems of economics or sociology remain in their re- arXiv:1308.2191v4 [q-fin.GN] 26 Aug 2013 spective departments and publish their econophysics research results in almost all the major physics journals.
