Economics and econophysics -- Measuring the income distribution -- Piketty's Capital in the twenty-first century -- Stochastic dynamics of income and wealth -- Circular flows in economic systems -- Goodwin type distributive macrodynamics.

Economists are fond of the physicists' powerful tools. As a popular mindset Toolism is as old as economics but the transplants failed to produce the same successes as in their aboriginal environment. Economists therefore looked more and more to the math department for inspiration. Now the tide...

In this paper, we draw upon the close relationship between statistical physics and mathematical finance to develop a suite of models for financial bubbles and crashes. By modifying previous approaches, we are able to derive novel analytical formulae for evaluation problems and for the expected...

This article poses a new methodology applying the statistical analysis to the economic literature. This analysis has never been used in the history of economic thought, albeit it may open up new possibilities and provide us with further explanations so as to reconsider theoretical issues. With...

A new kind of entropy will be introduced generalizing both the differential entropy and the cumulative (residual) entropy. The generalization is twofold. Firstly, we define the entropy for cumulative distribution functions (cdf) and survivor functions (sf) simultaneously instead of densities,...
