Econophysics, Entropy, and Complexity

J. Barkley Rosser

Chapter Chapter 4 in Foundations and Applications of Complexity Economics, 2021, pp 69-88 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The term econophysics was neologized in 1995 at the second Statphys-Kolkata conference in Kolkata (formerly Calcutta), India by the physicist H. Eugene Stanley, who was also the first to use it in print (Stanley 1996). Mantegna and Stanley (2000, pp. viii–ix) define “the multidisciplinary field of econophysics” as “a neologism that denotes the activities of physicists who are working on economics problems to test a variety of new conceptual approaches deriving from the physical sciences” Chakrabarti 2005, p. 225).
