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.

  • The Physical Modelling of Society: a Historical Perspective
    Physica A 314 (2002) 1–14 www.elsevier.com/locate/physa The physical modelling ofsociety: a historical perspective Philip Ball Nature, 4-6 Crinan St, London N1 9XW, UK Abstract By seeking to uncover the rules ofcollective human activities, today’s statistical physicists are aiming to return to their roots. Statistics originated in the study ofsocial numbers in the 17th century, and the discovery ofstatistical invariants in data on births and deaths, crimes and marriages led some scientists and philosophers to conclude that society was governed by immutable “natural” laws beyond the reach ofgovernments, ofwhich the Gaussian “error curve” became regarded as the leitmotif. While statistics .ourished as a mathematical tool of all the sciences in the 19th century, it provoked passionate responses from philosophers, novelists and social commentators. Social statistics also guided Maxwell and Boltzmann towards the utilization ofprobability distributions in the development ofthe kinetic theory ofgases, the foundationof statistical mechanics. c 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

Introduction The introduction ofprobability into the fundamentalnature ofthe quantum world by Bohr, Born and Schr8odinger in the 1920s famously scandalized some scholars ofscience’s philosophical foundations.But arguments about chance, probability and determinism were no less heated in the mid-19th century, when statistical ideas entered classical physics.

  • John Von Neumann Between Physics and Economics: a Methodological Note
    Review of Economic Analysis 5 (2013) 177–189 1973-3909/2013177 John von Neumann between Physics and Economics: A methodological note LUCA LAMBERTINI∗y University of Bologna A methodological discussion is proposed, aiming at illustrating an analogy between game theory in particular (and mathematical economics in general) and quantum mechanics. This analogy relies on the equivalence of the two fundamental operators employed in the two fields, namely, the expected value in economics and the density matrix in quantum physics. I conjecture that this coincidence can be traced back to the contributions of von Neumann in both disciplines. Keywords: expected value, density matrix, uncertainty, quantum games JEL Classifications: B25, B41, C70 1 Introduction Over the last twenty years, a growing amount of attention has been devoted to the history of game theory. Among other reasons, this interest can largely be justified on the basis of the Nobel prize to John Nash, John Harsanyi and Reinhard Selten in 1994, to Robert Aumann and Thomas Schelling in 2005 and to Leonid Hurwicz, Eric Maskin and Roger Myerson in 2007 (for mechanism design).1 However, the literature dealing with the history of game theory mainly adopts an inner per- spective, i.e., an angle that allows us to reconstruct the developments of this sub-discipline under the general headings of economics. My aim is different, to the extent that I intend to pro- pose an interpretation of the formal relationships between game theory (and economics) and the hard sciences. Strictly speaking, this view is not new, as the idea that von Neumann’s interest in mathematics, logic and quantum mechanics is critical to our understanding of the genesis of ∗I would like to thank Jurek Konieczny (Editor), an anonymous referee, Corrado Benassi, Ennio Cavaz- zuti, George Leitmann, Massimo Marinacci, Stephen Martin, Manuela Mosca and Arsen Palestini for insightful comments and discussion.

  • The Social Physics Collective Matjaž Perc 1,2,3 Editorial More Than Two Centuries Ago Henri De Saint-Simon Envisaged Physical Laws to Describe Human Societies
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The social physics collective Matjaž Perc 1,2,3 EDITORIAL More than two centuries ago Henri de Saint-Simon envisaged physical laws to describe human societies. Driven by advances in statistical physics, network science, data analysis, and information technology, this vision is becoming a reality. Many of the grandest challenges of our time are of a societal nature, and methods of physics are increasingly playing a central role in improving our understanding of these challenges, and helping us to fnd innovative solutions. The Social physics Collection at Scientifc Reports is dedicated to this research. lthough we are unique and hardly predictable as individuals, research has shown that in a collective we ofen behave no diferently than particles in matter1. Indeed, many aspects of collective behavior in human societies have turned out to be remarkably predictable, and this fact has paved the way for methods of Aphysics to be applied to many contemporary societal challenges. Examples include trafc2, crime3, epidemic pro- cesses4, vaccination5, cooperation6, climate inaction7, as well as antibiotic overuse8 and moral behavior9, to name just some examples. In fact, possible synergies between physical and social sciences have been foating around in the scientifc literature for centuries. Over two centuries ago, the French political and economic theorist Henri de Saint-Simon was amongst the frst to propose that society could be described by laws similar to those in physics10. However, similar ideas have been around already in the 17th century, when Tomas Hobbes based his theory of the state on the laws of motion, in particular on the principle of inertia, which was then deduced by his contemporary Galileo Galilei11.

  • Social Thermodynamics, Social Hydrodynamics and Some Mathematical Applications in Social Sciences
    International Journal of Modern Social Sciences, 2013, 2(2): 94-108 International Journal of Modern Social Sciences ISSN: 2169-9917 Journal homepage: www.ModernScientificPress.com/Journals/IJMSS.aspx Florida, USA Article Social Thermodynamics, Social Hydrodynamics and Some Mathematical Applications in Social Sciences Yi-Fang Chang Department of Physics, Yunnan University, Kunming, 650091, China Email: [email protected] Article history: Received 16 May 2013, Received in revised form 17 July 2013, Accepted 18 July 2013, Published 19 July 2013. Abstract: Based on the sameness for men or any elements in the social systems, we search the social thermodynamics, and possible entropy decrease in social sciences. Next, using the similar formulas of the preference relation and the utility function, we propose the confidence relations and the corresponding influence functions that represent various interacting strengths of different families, cliques and systems of organization. This produces a multiply connected topological economics. Further, we discuss the binary periods of the political economy by the complex function and the elliptic functions. Using the nonlinear equations of hydrodynamics we may research the formulations of the binary and multiple centers in various social systems. Finally, we propose the developed directions of society and a unification of simplicity and complexity from a new tree-field representation. The application of mathematics and physics will be an important direction of modern social science at 21 century. Keywords: social science, mathematics, thermodynamics, entropy, nonlinearity, hydrodynamics, topology, complex function 1. Introduction It is long time ago that mathematics is applied in various social sciences. This may trace to its source: Chinese Yi (I Ching, or The Book of Change) and Pythagoras.

  • Social Synergetics, Social Physics and Research of Fundamental
    Social Synergetics, Social Physics and Research of Fundamental Laws in Social Complex Systems Yi-Fang Chang Department of Physics, Yunnan University, Kunming, 650091, China (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract: We proposed social synergetics and the four basic theorems, in which theorem of perfect correlation on humanity is researched mathematically. Generally, we discuss the four variables and the eight aspects in social physics. We search social thermodynamics and the five fundamental laws of social complex systems. Then we research different relations among social elements and applications of the nonlinear sociology, for example, for the economic systems. Finally, we discuss the evolutional equation of system and the educational equation. Key words: social physics, synergetics, thermodynamics, equations, nonlinear sociology, relation PACS: 89.65.-s; 05.70.-a; 05.45.-a; 02.60.Lj 1.Social synergetics H.Haken proposed synergetics [1-3], which as a bridge between the natural and social sciences and a strategy to cope with various complex systems are very useful. Social synergetics is an application of synergetics [4]. Both basic mathematics and equations are the same [4]. The mathematical base in synergetics is very universal probability, information and some equations, for example [1]: (1). The master equation with random movement model is: dP(m,t) W (m,m 1)P(m 1,t) W (m,m 1)P(m 1,t) dt (1) [W (m 1,m) W (m 1,m)]P(m,t). For the Markov process, Eq.(1) derives the Chapman-Kolmogorov equation Pt 3,t1 (m3 ,m1 ) Pt 3,t 2 (m3 ,m2 )Pt 3,t1 (m2 ,m1 ) .

  • Where Does Econophysics Fit in the Complexity Revolution? Dave Colander (Middlebury College)
    Where does Econophysics fit in the Complexity Revolution? Dave Colander (Middlebury College) Early Draft Paper Prepared for the 2018 ASSA Meetings Philadelphia, PA. Jan 5th-7th Abstract A revolution is occurring in economics that is changing its scope and method. I call it the complexity revolution. The question I explore in this paper is: Where does econophysics fit in that revolution? I argue that the changing methods generally associated with the term econophysics are occurring because of advances in analytic and computational technology, and are not uniquely attributable to integrating physics and economics. Thus, using the term “econophysics” is likely to mislead people as to the nature of the complexity revolution. That complexity revolution involves an exploration of envisioning the economy as a complex evolving system driven by often unintended consequences of actions by purposeful agents. It is a vision that is more related to biology than to physics, and, at this stage of its development, is better thought of as an engineering revolution than a scientific revolution. Where does Econophysics fit in the Complexity Revolution? Dave Colander (Middlebury College) A revolution is occurring in economics. I call it the complexity revolution. Almost twenty years ago (Colander 2000) I predicted that in 50 to 100 years when historians of economics look back on the millennium, they would classify it as the end of the neoclassical era in economics and the beginning of the complexity era of economics. I stand by that prediction. The question I address in this paper is: Where does econophysics fit in that revolution?1 Before I turn to that question, let briefly summarize what I mean by the complexity revolution in economics.2 It is an expansion of the scope of economics to consider issues, such as complex dynamics, and semi-endogenous tastes and norms, that previously were assumed fixed.

  • The Dynamics of Human Society Evolution: an Energetics Approach
    The Dynamics of Human Society Evolution: An Energetics Approach Ram C. Poudel1, 2, Jon G. McGowan 2 1Department of Mechanical Engineering, Central Campus Pulchowk, Institute of Engineering, Tribhuvan University, Nepal 2Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA Last updated: 3/31/2019 4:17 PM ABSTRACT Human society is an open system that evolves by coupling with various known and unknown (energy) fluxes. How do these dynamics precisely unfold? Energetics may provide further insights. We expand on Navier-Stokes’ approach to study non-equilibrium dynamics in a field that evolves with time. Based on the ‘social field theory’, an induction of the classical field theories, we define social force, social energy and Hamiltonian of an individual in a society. The equations for the evolution of an individual and society are sketched based on the time-dependent Hamiltonian that includes power dynamics. In this paper, we will demonstrate that Lotka-Volterra type equations can be derived from the Hamiltonian equation in the social field. Keywords: energetics; social field theory; capital; capabilities; evolution. In memory of Richard N. Adams (1924 – 2018), the author of The Eighth Day 1.0 Introduction Human life is a complex system. It is very difficult to interpret human life based on its physical properties alone. Let’s postpone the genesis of life for now; we will focus here on human life after it emerges. Whether one reads Longfellow [1] or Tesla [2], they each point out that human life is a movement. What is the nature of this movement? Instead of making an eponymous hypothesis, we conjecture that the human system and its underlying movements are not much different from many other systems around us.

  • Applications of Statistical Physics in Economics and Finance’ Doyne Farmer and Thomas Lux, Eds
    Introduction to Special Issue on ‘Applications of Statistical Physics in Economics and Finance’ Doyne Farmer and Thomas Lux, eds. The papers collected in this special issue are intended to provide a representative sample of current research at the interface between physics and economics. The relationship between both disciplines has been a recurrent topic in the history of science, and recently the interaction between the two fields has been rekindled by a resurgence of physicists working on problems in social science. It has often been remarked that the mathematical apparatus developed by (neo-) classical theory, and in particular general equilibrium theory, was strongly influenced by Newtonian mechanics. Indeed, economics has been criticized for getting stuck in a formal apparatus that physics has long since outgrown (Mirowski, 1989). A neoclassical economist might rightly respond that the two fields have diverged for a good reason, i.e. because of the fundamental differences between the study of inert matter and sentient beings, and that the analogies that might have inspired the original neoclassicists are no longer relevant. What is relevant is the development of useful scientific theories that correctly describe the world as it is, and allow us to make normative predictions that might help change it for the better. While it had been repeatedly pointed out that Walras and Pareto were deeply influenced by the success of Newtonian physics (Ingrao and Israel, 2000), later analogies between physical modeling and economic phenomena have had more of an engineering flavor, e.g. Phillips’ hydraulic apparatus for the simulation of macroeconomic dynamics (Phillips, 1950), or the use of electronic circuits for the same purpose in Morehouse et al.
