The growth of business firms is an example of a system of complex interacting units that resembles complex interacting systems in nature such as earthquakes. Remarkably, work in econophysics has provided evidence that the statistical properties of the growth of business firms follow the same sorts of power laws that ch…

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.

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…

Refines virtual link equality criterion for diagrams with one virtual crossing.

problem Determining when a virtual link diagram represents a properly virtual link.
method Refines the Kauffman-Murasugi-Thislethwaite type inequality for virtual links.
result Criterion for virtual link diagrams with exactly one virtual crossing to represent a properly virtual link.

The virtual unknotting number of a virtual knot is the minimal number of crossing changes that makes the virtual knot to be the unknot, which is defined only for virtual knots virtually homotopic to the unknot. We focus on the virtual knot obtained from the standard (p,q)-torus knot diagram by replacing all crossings o…

This paper connects virtual biquandles to biquandles for virtual link colorings.

problem Extending invariants from biquandles to virtual biquandles.
method Establishing equivalence between two representations of virtual braid groups and introducing new labeling rules.
result The number of colorings of a virtual link by virtual biquandles can be recovered from colorings by biquandles.

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…

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.
method Constructing unweighted and weighted global oil trade networks (OTNs) using UN Comtrade data from 1988 to 2017, and applying complex network theories.
result Efficiency of oil flows increases with complexity of OTNs, and weighted efficiency indicators highlight major events.

A virtual string can be defined as an equivalence class of planar diagrams under certain kinds of diagrammatic moves. Virtual strings are related to virtual knots in that a simple operation on a virtual knot diagram produces a diagram for a virtual string. In this paper we consider three operations on a virtual string …

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…

A virtual nn-string is a chord diagram with nn core circles and a collection of arrows between core circles. We consider virtual nn-strings up to virtual homotopy, compositions of flat virtual Reidemeister moves on chord diagrams. Given a virtual 1-string αα, Turaev associated a based matrix that encodes invariants…

Given a virtual knot KK, we construct a group VGKVG_K called the virtual knot group, and we use the elementary ideals of VGKVG_K to define invariants of KK called the virtual Alexander invariants. For instance, associated to the k=0k=0 ideal is a polynomial HK(s,t,q)H_K(s,t,q) in three variables which we call the virtual Alexa…

A virtual link diagram is called normal if the associated abstract link diagram is checkerboard colorable, and a virtual link is normal if it has a normal diagram as a representative. Normal virtual links have some properties similar to classical links.In this paper, we introduce a method of converting a virtual link d…
