We analyze a psychologically-based model of voter turnout in an election with common value and uncertainty. Our model yields distinctive comparative statics results. First, an increase in the proportion of informed citizens may cause the winning margin for the right candidate to either rise or...

We study individual coherent preferences underlying asset prices and propose a set of explicit models for nonlinear V-shaped price pressure utility in a new framework. Coherent preferences are consistent interactive choices between momentum trading and reversal trading in stock market where...

A complex system consists of a lot of interactive individuals, agents, or units. It occurs widely but is hard to model in both natural and social sciences. Its behavior is neither regular nor random. However, it has some kinds of structures which capture our interesting to study. We can apply...

We propose a new model of minority game with so-called smart agents such that the standard deviation and the total loss in this model reach the theoretical minimum values in the limit of long time. The smart agents use trail and error method to make a choice but bring global optimization to the...

Guided by a price-volume probability wave differential equation in a new mathematical method, we study intraday market dynamic equilibrium in stock market. We select intraday cumulative trading volume distribution over a price range for individual mental representation and determine a price...

This paper applies a price-volume probability wave differential equation to examine an interacting traders’ preference hypothesis using tick-by-tick high frequency data in Chinese stock market, and provides a new behavioral interpretation on the market dynamic equilibrium. We select intraday...

This is the revised presentation slides for the paper entitled “what is the underlying coherent behavior in market dynamic equilibrium?” after we have got feedbacks from anonymous referees, discussants, session chairs, and participants at 2022 Economics of Financial Technology Conference...

The financial market and turbulence have been broadly compared on account of the same quantitative methods and several common stylized facts they shared. In this paper, the She-Leveque (SL) hierarchy, proposed to explain the anomalous scaling exponents deviated from Kolmogorov monofractal...
