Computable, Constructive and Behavioural Economic Dynamics
The book contains thirty original articles dealing with important aspects of theoretical as well as applied economic theory. While the principal focus is on: the computational and algorithmic nature of economic dynamics; individual as well as collective decision process and rational behavior, some contributions emphasize also the importance of classical recursion theory and constructive mathematics for dynamical systems, business cycles theories, growth theories, and others are in the area of history of thought, methodology and behavioural economics. The contributors range from Nobel Laureates to the promising new generation of innovative thinkers. This volume is also a Festschrift in honour...
Models of Simon
Herbert Simon (1916-2001) is mostly celebrated for the theory of bounded rationality and satisficing. This book of essays on Models of Simon tackles these topics that the he broached in a professional career spanning more than 60 years. Expository material on the fundamental concepts he introduced are re-interpreted in terms of the theory of computability. This volume frames the behavioural issues of concern for economists, such as: hierarchy, causality, near-diagonal linear dynamical systems, discovery, the contrasts between the notion of heuristics, and the Church-Turing Thesis of Computability Theory. There is, consistently, an emphasis on the historical origins of the concepts Simon work...
Macroeconomic Theory and Economic Policy
Jean-Paul Fitoussi needs no introduction as one of the world's foremost Macroeconomists of his generation. This celebration of his work includes contributions from Nobel Prize - winning economists Robert W. Clower and Robert Solow as well as Olivier Blanchard and leading economic theorist, Edmond Malinvaud.
Computability, Complexity and Constructivity in Economic Analysis
This cutting-edge collection of essays develops an economic theory based on the mathematics of the digital computer. A cutting-edge collection of essays, which develops an economic theory based on the mathematics of the digital computer. Proposes a wholly different mathematical foundation for economic theory and applied economics. The contributors supply explicit formalizations and applications to traditional issues in economic analysis. Each chapter presents new theoretical perspectives and results, and novel conceptual definitions.
Computable Foundations for Economics
Computable Foundations for Economics is a unified collection of essays, some of which are published here for the first time and all of which have been updated for this book, on an approach to economic theory from the point of view of algorithmic mathematics. By algorithmic mathematics the author means computability theory and constructive mathematics. This is in contrast to orthodox mathematical economics and game theory, which are formalised with the mathematics of real analysis, underpinned by what is called the ZFC formalism, i.e., set theory with the axiom of choice. This reliance on ordinary real analysis and the ZFC system makes economic theory in its current mathematical mode complete...
Advanced Macroeconomics: An Alternative Approach
Advanced Macroeconomics: An Alternative Approach surveys the growth and development of macroeconomics, beginning with Wicksell’s codification of its main elements. Covering 120 years of rigorous curiosity, it guides readers toward clearly described frontiers by developing macroeconomic theories with the help of algorithmic mathematics, not externally-developed real analysis and mathematical logic irrelevant to macroeconomics. Avoiding an excessive homogeneity of perspectives, it reveals new perspectives about economic phenomena by challenging readers to use new or alternative methodologies. Early chapters cover standard approaches, enabling readers to appreciate innovations. Advanced Macroeconomics: An Alternative Approach uses mathematics based on aspects of computability theory, constructive mathematics, and associated simulation techniques. Includes end-of-section questions with answers Provides Matlab simulations on a freely-accessible website Offers framing summaries and explanations that increase accessibility to alternative theories and applications
Social Fairness and Economics
This volume brings together papers inspired by the work of Duncan Foley, an extraordinarily productive economist who has made seminal contributions to a wide variety of areas. Foley’s work cannot be easily classified, but one thread that runs through it is a critical examination (along both ethical and analytical lines) of conventional neoclassical economic theory, particularly involving general equilibrium theories of value and money. Foley was a pioneer of complexity economics as well, which adopts approaches to these questions drawn from natural sciences, so the collection therefore has an interdisciplinary quality that will interest a wide variety of readers. Some of the chapters are i...
Computational Intelligence Techniques for Trading and Investment
Computational intelligence, a sub-branch of artificial intelligence, is a field which draws on the natural world and adaptive mechanisms in order to study behaviour in changing complex environments. This book provides an interdisciplinary view of current technological advances and challenges concerning the application of computational intelligence techniques to financial time-series forecasting, trading and investment. The book is divided into five parts. The first part introduces the most important computational intelligence and financial trading concepts, while also presenting the most important methodologies from these different domains. The second part is devoted to the application of tr...
Financial Cultures and Crisis Dynamics
The recent financial crisis exposed both a naïve faith in mathematical models to manage risk and a crude culture of greed that embraces risk. This book explores cultures of finance in sites such as corporate governance, hedge funds, central banks, the City of London and Wall Street, and small and medium enterprises. It uses different methods to explore these cultures and their interaction with different financial orders to improve our understanding of financial crisis dynamics. The introduction identifies types of cultural turn in studies of finance. Part I outlines relevant research methods, including comparison of national cultures viewed as independent variables, cultural political econo...
