This study analyzes global oil trade networks to assess their efficiency and robustness.

problem Dynamic monitoring and warning of international trade risks in global oil trade.

result Efficiency of oil flows increases with complexity of OTNs, and weighted efficiency indicators highlight major events.

A simple model economy with locally interacting producers and consumers is introduced. When driven by extremal dynamics, the model self-organizes {\em not} to an attractor state, but to an asymptote, on which the economy has a constant rate of deflation, is critical, and exhibits avalanches of activity with power-law d…

General equilibrium is the dominant theoretical framework for economic policy analysis at the level of the whole economy. In practice, general equilibrium treats economies as being always in equilibrium, albeit in a sequence of equilibria as driven by external changes in parameters. This view is sometimes defended on t…

We study the competitive equilibrium of large random economies with linear activities using methods of statistical mechanics. We focus on economies with CC commodities, NN firms, each running a randomly drawn linear technology, and one consumer. We derive, in the limit N,CN,C\to\infty with n=N/Cn=N/C fixed, a complete de…

The stability of money value is an important requisite for a functioning economy, yet it critically depends on the actions of participants in the market themselves. Here we model the value of money as a dynamical variable that results from trading between agents. The basic trading scenario can be recast into an Ising t…

An agent-based computational economical toy model for the emergence of money from the initial barter trading, inspired by Menger's postulate that money can spontaneously emerge in a commodity exchange economy, is extensively studied. The model considered, while manageable, is significantly complex, however. It is alrea…

problem Capitalist economies' recurrent crises disproportionate to shocks.
method Formal framework interpreting instability as geometric fragility of production networks.

Study models risks for low-carbon economy in Balkan countries, focusing on shadow economy and populism.

problem Risks and uncertainties in establishing a low-carbon economy in Balkan countries with transition economies.
method Transdisciplinary approach combining economic policy, public opinion, and climate change models.
result Identifies shadow economy and populism as key risk factors for low-carbon economy implementation.

We consider in a market model the cooperative emergence of value due to a positive feedback between perception of needs and demand. Here we consider also a negative feedback from production of the traded products, and find that this cooperativity is robust, provided that the production rate is slow. Cooperativity is fo…

We introduce an irreversible discrete multiplicative process that undergoes Bose-Einstein condensation as a generic model of competition. New players with different abilities successively join the game and compete for limited resources. A player's future gain is proportional to its ability and its current gain. The the…

This study evaluates Algorand and Ethereum 2.0 for blockchain trilemma challenges.

problem Balancing decentralization, security, and scalability in blockchain systems.
method Comparative analysis of Algorand and Ethereum 2.0 using metrics for decentralization, scalability, and security.
result Each system has strengths in addressing the blockchain trilemma, providing insights for other blockchain technologies.

The paper proposes a new model for predicting and analyzing economic variables.

problem Predicting and analyzing economic variables in developed regions.
method Time-varying parameter global vector autoregressive (TVP-GVAR) framework combined with machine learning models.
result The proposed model provides high precision out-of-sample predictions and novel insights into economic variable connectedness.

Study confirms financial bubbles' common patterns in isolated markets.

problem Testing universal dynamics of financial bubbles in isolated markets.
method Log-Periodic Power Law Singularity (LPPLS) model analysis of two major bubble episodes.
result Tehran Stock Exchange shows clear LPPLS hallmarks, supporting bubble universality.

In the aftermath of the burst of the ``new economy'' bubble in 2000, the Federal Reserve aggressively reduced short-term rates yields in less than two years from 6.5% to 1.25% in an attempt to coax forth a stronger recovery of the US economy. But, there is growing apprehension that this is creating a new bubble in real…

Analyzes how economic policies affect wealth distribution in Bitcoin token economy.

problem Impact of economic policies on wealth distribution in token economies.
method Eliminated noise in wealth distribution data using macroeconomic and microeconomic time series. Causality analysis between BIPs and wealth distribution data.
result Proposed a structure for economic policy taxonomy in token economies.

We analyze a conservative market model for the competition among economic agents in a close society. A minimum dynamics ensures that the poorest agent has a chance to improve its economic welfare. After a transient, the system self-organizes into a critical state where the wealth distribution have a minimum threshold, …

We discuss a Pareto macro-economy (a) in a closed system with fixed total wealth and (b) in an open system with average mean wealth and compare our results to a similar analysis in a super-open system (c) with unbounded wealth. Wealth condensation takes place in the social phase for closed and open economies, while it …

The study finds significant financial sector volatility and tail risk spillovers to real economy sectors.

problem Volatility and tail risk spillovers from financial to real economy sectors.
method New measure of tail risk spillover, empirical analysis of U.S. economy 2001-2011.
result Significant volatility and tail risk spillovers from financial to real economy sectors, especially during crises.

Market economy closely connects aspects to all walks of life. The stock forecast is one of task among studies on the market economy. However, information on markets economy contains a lot of noise and uncertainties, which lead economy forecasting to become a challenging task. Ensemble learning and deep learning are the…

Traders in a market typically have widely different, private information on the return of an asset. The equilibrium price of the asset may reflect this information more accurately if the number of traders is large enough compared to the number of the states of the world that determine the return of the asset. We study …

A phase plot of the oil economy is built using the literature data of world oil production, price, and EROEI (Energy Returned on Energy Invested). An analogy between the oil economy and the Benard convection is proposed; some methods of interpretation and forecast of the system behavior are also shown based on "phase p…

The optimal (`equilibrium') macroscopic properties of an economy with NN industries endowed with different technologies, PP commodities and one consumer are derived in the limit NN\to\infty with n=N/Pn=N/P fixed using the replica method. When technologies are strictly inefficient, a phase transition occurs upon increas…
