SWARMS DYNAMICS APPROACH TO BEHAVIORAL ECONOMY: THEORETICAL TOOLS AND PRICE SEQUENCES

This paper presents a development of the mathematical theory of swarms towards a systems approach to behavioral dynamics of social and economical systems. The modeling approach accounts for the ability of social entities are to develop a specific strategy which is heterogeneously distributed by interactions which are nonlinearly additive. A detailed application to the modeling of the dynamics of prices in the interaction between buyers and sellers is developed to describe the predictive ability of the model.
