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.

  • 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.

Since its name was coined in 1995 by merging the words “Economics” and “Physics”, this new interdisciplinary field has grown in various directions: theo- retical macroeconomics (wealth distributions), microstructure of financial markets (order book modelling), econometrics of financial bubbles and crashes, etc. We discuss interactions between Physics, Mathematics, Economics and Finance that led to the emergence of Econophysics. Then we present empirical studies reveal- ing statistical properties of financial time series. We begin the presentation with the widely acknowledged “stylized facts” which describe the returns of financial assets – fat tails, volatility clustering, autocorrelation, etc. – and recall that some of these properties are directly linked to the way “time” is taken into account. We continue with the statistical properties observed on order books in financial markets.
