Universal Fluctuations in Growth Dynamics of Economic Systems

Frey, Nathan C. - 2019

The growth of business firms is an example of a system of complex interacting units that resembles complex interacting systems in nature such as earthquakes. Remarkably, work in econophysics has provided evidence that the statistical properties of the growth of business firms follow the same...
