We present a simple financial market model with interacting chartists and fundamentalists. Since some speculators only become active when a certain misalignment level has been crossed, the model dynamics is driven by a discontinuous piecewise linear map. Recent mathematical techniques allow a...

In this paper we consider a discontinuous one-dimensional piecewise linear model describing a neoclassical growth model. These kind of maps are widely used in the applied context. We determine the analytical expressions of border collision bifurcation curves, responsible for the observed...

In this paper we consider a continuous one-dimensional map, which is linear on one side of a generic kink point and hyperbolic on the other side. This kind of map is widely used in the applied context. Due to the simple expression of the two functions involved, in particular cases it is possible...
