method Developed a demand-driven reduced-form model with strategic complementarities and international trade linkages.
result Combining endogenous business cycles with exogenous shocks matches empirical comovement levels.

Study reveals 2020 stock crashes were mostly endogenous, not exogenous.

method Applied log-periodic power law singularity (LPPLS) methodology to analyze stock market indexes.
result The 2020 stock market crashes were mostly endogenous, driven by systemic instability.

The three-state agent-based 2D model of financial markets as proposed by Giulia Iori has been extended by introducing increasing trust in the correctly predicting agents, a more realistic consultation procedure as well as a formal validation mechanism. This paper shows that such a model correctly reproduces the three f…

This paper suggests that business cycles may be a manifestation of coupled real economy and stock market dynamics and describes a mechanism that can generate economic fluctuations consistent with observed business cycles. To this end, we seek to incorporate into the macroeconomic framework a dynamic stock market model …

The paper tackles reinforcement learning with exogenous variables and rewards.

problem Exogenous state variables and rewards slow reinforcement learning by introducing uncontrolled variation.
method Formalizes exogenous state variables and rewards, decomposes MDP into exogenous and endogenous components, and introduces algorithms to discover these components.
result Optimal policies for the endogenous MDP are also optimal for the original MDP, but the endogenous MDP is easier to solve due to reduced variance.

We propose a dynamic mean field model for `systemic risk' in large financial systems, which we derive from a system of interacting diffusions on the positive half-line with an absorbing boundary at the origin. These diffusions represent the distances-to-default of financial institutions and absorption at zero correspon…

Existence of incomplete Radner equilibrium with endogenous noise tracker.

problem Existence of incomplete Radner equilibrium in a model with endogenous noise tracker.
method Proved existence through a coupled system of ODEs, reduced to two coupled ODEs.
result Endogenous noise tracker leads to higher aggregate welfare for large stock supply.

The paper develops an economic foundation for multi-agent learning in markets.

problem Learning dynamics in markets with strategic externalities.
method A two-phase incentive mechanism that estimates and uses implementable transfers to steer long-run dynamics.
result The mechanism achieves sublinear social-welfare regret and asymptotically optimal welfare under mild rationality and exploration conditions.

Modeling financial bubbles and crashes with a cubic momentum function.

problem Capturing the micro-level dynamics of investor behavior and panic selling.
method Introducing a cubic function of market momentum to model trend-following and sudden crashes.
result The model successfully replicates complex, nonlinear bubble dynamics.

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…

New findings allow infinite mean intensity Hawkes processes to be stable.

problem Stability condition for Hawkes processes with infinite mean intensity.
method Analysis of Quadratic Hawkes processes with infinite mean intensity.
result Quadratic Hawkes processes are always stationary with infinite mean intensity when total endogeneity ratio exceeds unity.

New taxonomy reveals different detection limits for various types of fraud.

problem Existing fraud detection treats all fraud as the same, ignoring its diverse forms.
method Introduced an observation-mechanism taxonomy with five fraud classes.
result Separate estimation by fraud class outperforms pooled estimation.

Systems with long-range persistence and memory are shown to exhibit different precursory as well as recovery patterns in response to shocks of exogeneous versus endogeneous origins. By endogeneous, we envision either fluctuations resulting from an underlying chaotic dynamics or from a stochastic forcing origin which ma…

Model analyzes Proof-of-Stake network dynamics and speculative capital effects on token prices.

problem Understanding and managing price dynamics in Proof-of-Stake networks.
method Developed an open-economy macroeconomic model to analyze Proof-of-Stake dynamics and speculative capital effects.
result Speculative capital can shift staked-token ownership, potentially improving consensus decentralization.

This paper models financial contagion with endogenously determined market liquidity.

problem Financial contagion and its impact on market liquidity during price drops.
method Developed a joint clearing system for interbank payments, asset prices, and market liquidity, with endogenous market capacity.
result Endogenous market liquidity significantly affects system risk during financial contagion.

Study classifies stock price jumps as exogenous or endogenous using news data.

problem Differentiating between exogenous and endogenous price jumps.
method Synchronized news data with order book data to analyze stock price movements.
result Exogenous jumps are abrupt and follow a decaying power-law, while endogenous jumps are progressively accelerating.

New method tackles endogeneity in online learning with improved regret bounds.

problem Endogeneity in real data due to omitted variables, strategic behaviors, etc.
method O2SLS (Online Two-Stage Least Squares) for Instrumental Variable (IV) regression.
result O2SLS achieves identification and oracle regret bounds for stochastic online learning.

Model explains stock price bubbles through debt crises and financial crashes.

problem Analyzing financial fragility and stock price bubbles.
method Stock-flow consistent model integrating macroeconomic and financial market dynamics.
result Model demonstrates how credit expansion and crash risk lead to recurrent boom-bust cycles.

Finance is about how the continuous stream of news gets incorporated into prices. But not all news have the same impact. Can one distinguish the effects of the Sept. 11, 2001 attack or of the coup against Gorbachev on Aug., 19, 1991 from financial crashes such as Oct. 1987 as well as smaller volatility bursts? Using a …

method Causal Gradient Boosting (boostIV) that builds on gradient boosting algorithm.
result boostIV is consistent and performs well in finite samples compared to other methods.

method Data-driven unified model with exogenous and endogenous uncertainty description for four types of generic energy storage.
result Comparative results show more severe risks for endogenous uncertainty, suggesting new strategies for system operators.

The Minority Game framework was recently generalized to account for the possibility that agents adapt not only through strategy selection but also by diversifying their response according to the kind of dynamical regime, or the risk, they perceive. Here we study the effects of this mechanism in different information st…
