Correlated adaptation of agents in a simple market: a statistical physics perspective

, 2000
We discuss recent work in the study of a simple model for the collective behaviour of diverse speculative agents in an idealized stockmarket, considered from the perspective of the statistical physics of many-body systems.

Major Conundrums and Possible Solutions in DeFi Insurance

International Journal of Finance &Economics, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 489-501, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper empirically explores the early development of insurance projects in the decentralised finance (DeFi) industry, which is based on disruptive technologies like blockchain and smart contracts. A brief history of DeFi is narrated, stressing four risks of DeFi (volatility risk, cyberattack risk, liquidity risk, and regulation risk) and ...

Harms and benefits from social imitation

, 2001
We study the role of imitation within a model of economics with adaptive agents. The basic ingredients are those of the Minority Game. We add the possibility of local information exchange and imitation of the neighbour's strategy.

Fluid‐Induced Fault Reactivations in Strike‐Slip Regimes: Temporal Constraints From GNSS and Seismological Analysis in the Peloritani Mts and Aeolian Archipelago (Central Mediterranean)

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Fluids can modify the mechanical properties of rocks, including shear strength and strain behavior. We investigate the timing and magnitude of seismic events during fault motion in strike–slip systems across the Peloritani Mountains (northeastern Sicily) and Aeolian Archipelago using GNSS and seismological data analysis.

Extracellular electron transfer mechanism in Shewanella loihica PV- 4 biofilms formed at indium tin oxide and graphite electrodes [PDF]

, 2013
Electroactive biofilms are capable of extracellular electron transfer to insoluble metal oxides and electrodes; such biofilms are relevant to biogeochemistry, bioremediation, and bioelectricity production.

Boolean Game on Scale-free Networks

, 2006
Inspired by the local minority game, we propose a network Boolean game and investigate its dynamical properties on scale-free networks. The system can self-organize to a stable state with better performance than random choice game, although only the ...

A theoretical framework for trading experiments [PDF]

, 2012
A general framework is suggested to describe human decision making in a certain class of experiments performed in a trading laboratory. We are in particular interested in discerning between two different moods, or states of the investors, corresponding ...

Cenozoic Evolution of the North‐Eastern Mediterranean Basins

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The Eastern Mediterranean lies at the junction of the African, Arabian, and Eurasian plates, a region shaped by a long and complex tectonic history. While the Levant Basin in the southern sector has been extensively studied for hydrocarbon exploration, the northern domain offshore Cyprus, Turkey, Syria, and Lebanon remains less understood.
