We investigate the structure of the profit landscape obtained from the most basic, fluctuation based, trading strategy applied for the daily stock price data. The strategy is parameterized by only two variables, p and q. Stocks are sold and bought if the log return is bigger than p and less than...

We use a cellular automata approach to numerically investigate traffic flow patterns on a single lane. The free-flow phase (F), the synchronized phase (S), and the jam phase (J) are observed and the transitions among them are studied as the vehicular density ρ is slowly varied. If ρ is...

We statistically verify the Hardy–Weinberg principle in genetics by investigating the independence of ABO-blood types of married couples. The allelic frequencies derived from the phenotypic frequencies in ethnic groups via the Hardy–Weinberg principle are used to define a genetic distance...

We investigate a dynamic model of network marketing in a small-world network structure artificially constructed similarly to the Watts–Strogatz network model. Different from the traditional marketing, consumers can also play the role of the manufacturer's selling agents in network marketing,...
