Toward an Understanding of Market Behavior: A Physics Perspective — •Neil Johnson — Physics Department, Oxford University U.K.
There is growing interest in agent-based market models within the physics community. In light of this, we give an overview of such physics-based approaches to self-consistent market modelling. We will focus on the physics community’s search for a minimal market model, and examine the trade-off between the desire for simplicity, yet consistency with the known ’stylized facts’ of markets. [For further details, see ’Financial Market Complexity’ (Oxford University Press, 2003).]
We will then briefly explore related applications of these models in
sociological and biological domains.
