This paper studies the links between the descriptions of macroeconomic variables and statistical moments of market trade, price, and return. The randomness of market trade values and volumes during the averaging interval Δ results in the random properties of price and return. We describe how...

Human activities have created environmental degradation with the internalization of the resulting externalities having been the main concern for policy makers worldwide. Uncertainty and unconvincing scientific evidence of various biophysical processes are present in many planned environmental...

The present proposal is an approach to the vision, cosmogony and philosophy of the Totonacapan people, and particularly with the inhabitants of the Totonacapan region in Veracruz Mexico, a town whose wisdom is manifested to this day, in the conservation of customs and traditions, as well as the...

To introduce the limit to economic growth and development, first history of economic thought precedents are put forward, later re versing to formal issues that elaborate upon previous work, which ad dress the mécaniques-geometries at the reductionist-holistic economy cicle (introducing an...

This book presents the reasons for which, given the globalization brought about by the ICT revolution, both liberalism and realism are ill suited as guides for international relations. And it argues in favor of a third option: institutionalism. The liberal ideal of progress and peace, brought...

This book presents the history of economic thought as it relates to today’s most pressing problems, and it emphasizes the critical connection that exists between what may seem cold, unrealistic mathematical economic models, and the quality of everyday life of any citizen of the planet earth....

This paper describes the dependence of market-based statistical moments of returns on statistical moments and correlations of the current and past trade values. We use Markowitz’s definition of value weighted return of a portfolio as the definition of market-based average return of trades...

This paper derives the expressions of correlations between prices of two assets, returns of two assets, and price-return correlations of two assets that depend on statistical moments and correlations of the current values, past values, and volumes of their market trades. The usual...

A residual-income model, named Systemic Value Added (SVA), is proposed for decision-making purposes, based on a systemic approach introduced in Magni (2000, 2003, 2004). The model translates the notion of residual income (excess profit) giving formal expression to a counterfactual alternative...

This paper presents a set of rules for matrix differentiation with respect to a vector of parameters, using the flattered representation of derivatives, i.e. in form of a matrix. We also introduce a new set of Kronecker tensor products of matrices. Finally we consider a problem of...
