A model for the growth dynamics of economic organizations

Amaral, L.A.N.; Gopikrishnan, P.; Plerou, V.; Stanley, H.E. - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 299 (2001) 1, pp. 127-136

We apply methods and concepts of statistical physics to the study of economic organizations. We identify robust, universal, characteristics of the time evolution of economic organizations. Specifically, we find the existence of scaling laws describing the growth of the size of these...
