Networks, Topology and Dynamics
There is convergent consensus among scientists that many social, economic and ?nancial phenomena can be described by a network of agents and their inter- tions. Surprisingly, even though the application ?elds are quite different, those n- works often show a common behaviour. Thus, their topological properties can give useful insights on how the network is structured, which are the most “important” nodes/agents, how the network reacts to new arrivals. Moreover the network, once included into a dynamic context, helps to model many phenomena. Among the t- ics in which topology and dynamics are the essential tools, we will focus on the diffusion of technologies and fads, the rise of industri...
Mathematical Modeling of Collective Behavior in Socio-Economic and Life Sciences
Using examples from finance and modern warfare to the flocking of birds and the swarming of bacteria, the collected research in this volume demonstrates the common methodological approaches and tools for modeling and simulating collective behavior. The topics presented point toward new and challenging frontiers of applied mathematics, making the volume a useful reference text for applied mathematicians, physicists, biologists, and economists involved in the modeling of socio-economic systems.
Centrality in Strategic Transportation Network Design
Efficient and effective transportation networks are backbones to modern societies. Methodologically, their design has mainly been driven by optimization approaches oftentimes with a strong cost focus. Their strategic planning, however, should go beyond detailed cost analysis and identify other key decision drivers. Transportation network centrality describes the appearance of a network; hence is crucial for network design. Anne Paul develops a strategic approach to transportation network design by conceptualizing transportation network centrality and relating it to the performance and quality of transportation networks. Consequently, the concept of network centrality serves to support decisions in strategic network design. A practical implementation of this approach is provided, demonstrating its feasibility. Potential readers include scholars and practitioners from logistics, supply chain management, and operational research with an interest in strategic transportation network design.
The Mathematics of the Modernist Villa
This book presents the first detailed mathematical analysis of the social, cognitive and experiential properties of Modernist domestic architecture. The Modern Movement in architecture, which came to prominence during the first half of the twentieth century, may have been famous for its functional forms and machine-made aesthetic, but it also sought to challenge the way people inhabit, understand and experience space. Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s buildings were not only minimalist and transparent, they were designed to subvert traditional social hierarchies. Frank Lloyd Wright’s organic Modernism not only attempted to negotiate a more responsive relationship between nature and architecture...

The Oxford Handbook of Public Choice
"This two-volume collection provides a comprehensive overview of the past seventy years of public choice research, written by experts in the fields surveyed. The individual chapters are more than simple surveys, but provide readers with both a sense of the progress made and puzzles that remain. Most are written with upper level undergraduate and graduate students in economics and political science in mind, but many are completely accessible to non-expert readers who are interested in Public Choice research. The two-volume set will be of broad interest to social scientists, policy analysts, and historians"--
Zentrales Clearing von OTC-Derivaten unter EMIR
Die Regulierung systemischer Risiken ist zentrales Anliegen der Reformbestrebungen im internationalen Finanzmarktrecht im Nachgang der Finanzkrise 2007-2009. Einen wesentlichen Beitrag hierzu soll die European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR) leisten, deren "Herzstück" die Einführung einer Pflicht zum Clearing bestimmter außerbörslicher Derivatekontrakte mittels zentraler Gegenparteien ist. Maximilian Brambring demonstriert anhand des Clearingmodells der Eurex, dass sich das zentrale Clearing von OTC-Derivaten nach den Vorgaben der EMIR innerhalb der deutschen Rechtsordnung konzeptionell und rechtstechnisch überzeugend umsetzen lässt. Der Autor knüpft zudem am Diskurs um die Regulierung systemischer Risiken im Finanzmarkt an und zeigt anhand wirtschaftswissenschaftlicher Modelle die Eignung des zentralen Clearings zu deren Bekämpfung ebenso auf wie Friktionen und Zielkonflikte. Die Arbeit wurde mit dem Förderpreis der Stiftung Kapitalmarktforschung für den Finanzstandort Deutschland 2016 ausgezeichnet.
Magnes: Der Magnetstein und der Magnetismus in den Wissenschaften der Frühen Neuzeit
In Magnes Christoph Sander explores the research on magnetism in the early modern period and draws a comprehensive panorama of all fields of study investigating this surprising phenomenon.
The Oxford Handbook of Public Choice
The Oxford Handbook of Public Choice provides a comprehensive overview of the research in economics, political science, law, and sociology that has generated considerable insight into the politics of democratic and authoritarian systems as well as the influence of different institutional frameworks on incentives and outcomes. The result is an improved understanding of public policy, public finance, industrial organization, and macroeconomics as the combination of political and economic analysis shed light on how various interests compete both within a given rules of the games and, at times, to change the rules. These volumes include analytical surveys, syntheses, and general overviews of the...
