Regulating and governing AI will remain a challenge due to the inherent intricacy of how AI is deployed and used in practice. Regulation effectiveness and efficiency is inversely proportional to system complexity and the clarity of objectives: the more complicated an area is and the harder...

Unlike equilibrium systems, where it is possible to study the impact of endogenous and exogenous perturbations using fluctuation-dissipation theorems, it is difficult to understand and predict the impact of shocks in out-of-equilibrium systems. This thesis tries to uncover and quantify the...

The topic of service innovation (SI) attracts substantial interest among both service researchers and industrial practitioners. Drawing from network theory and complex network analysis methods, this chapter maps the conceptual structure of SI by detecting and delineating related themes and their...

We propose a structural alternative to the Economic Complexity Index (ECI, Hidalgo and Hausmann 2009; Hausmann et al. 2011) that ranks countries by their complexity. This ranking is tied to comparative advantages. Hence, it reveals information different from GDP per capita on the deep underlying...

We consider a two-stage game with an option to analyze disclosures in the first stage, and a coordination game in the second stage. Decision makers are assumed to be heterogeneous in their ability to comprehend disclosures—sophisticated players are likely to comprehend disclosures, while...

This paper embeds a wide-angled overview of the process of change, spanning the evolution of the species to the modern human-centered period. The model is based on the central proposition that change ensues from the supply-demand interaction between disorder and order, chaos and complexity....
