Despites the great interest caused by social networks in Business Science, their analysis is rarely performed both in a global and systematic way in this field: most authors focus on parts of the studied network, or on a few nodes considered individually. This could be explained by the fact that...

Despites the great interest caused by social networks in Business Science, their analysis is rarely performed in both a global and systematic way in this field. This could be explained by the fact their practical extraction is a difficult and costly task. One may ask if equivalent information...

This paper aims at discovering the national influences inside the Governing Council of the ECB for setting interest rates. We use a textual analysis of national newspaper articles related to each European central banker to analyze their expressed preferences. We proceed to a cluster analysis...

The article is focused on current problems of reproduction processes at the regional level considering globalisation requirements. Attention is paid to the analysis of preconditions of cluster development of regional economy which tent to become the major reproduction factor in case of...

In this article, we specify the different approaches followed by the economists and the financial economists in order to use chaos theory. We explain the main difference using this theory with other research domains like the mathematics and the physics. Finally, we present tools necessary for...

This paper focuses on the use of dynamical chaotic systems in Economics and Finance. In these fields, researchers employ different methods from those taken by mathematicians and physicists. We discuss this point. Then, we present statistical tools and problems which are innovative and can be...

We investigate some statistical properties of the new k-factor Gegenbauer process with heteroscedastic noises One of the goals of the paper is to give tools which permit to use this model to explain the behaviour of certain data sets in finance and in macroeconomics. Monte Carlo experiments are...

Using Archimedean copulas, we investigate the dependence structure existing between several series of financial assets log-returns that come from different markets. These series are considered as components of a portfolio and they are investigated on a long period including high shocks. To...

Some crucial time series of market data, such as electricity spot prices, exhibit long memory, in the sense of slowly-decaying correlations combined with heteroscedasticity. To e able to model such a behaviour, we consider the k-factor GIGARCH process and we propose two methods to address the...
