Heterogeneous agent models in finance

R Dieci, XZ He - Handbook of computational economics, 2018 - Elsevier
This chapter surveys the state-of-art of heterogeneous agent models (HAMs) in finance
using a jointly theoretical and empirical analysis, combined with numerical analysis from the …

Interactions between stock, bond and housing markets

R Dieci, N Schmitt, F Westerhoff - Journal of Economic Dynamics and …, 2018 - Elsevier
We develop a model in which investors can participate in stock, bond and housing markets.
Investors' market entry decisions are subject to herding effects and depend on the markets' …

Heterogeneity, spontaneous coordination and extreme events within large-scale and small-scale agent-based financial market models

N Schmitt, F Westerhoff - Journal of Evolutionary Economics, 2017 - Springer
We propose a novel agent-based financial market framework in which speculators usually
follow their own individual technical and fundamental trading rules to determine their orders …

On the bimodality of the distribution of the S&P 500's distortion: Empirical evidence and theoretical explanations

N Schmitt, F Westerhoff - Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control, 2017 - Elsevier
After showing that the distribution of the S&P 500's distortion, ie the log difference between
its real stock market index and its real fundamental value, is bimodal, we demonstrate that …

A financial market model with two discontinuities: Bifurcation structures in the chaotic domain

A Panchuk, I Sushko, F Westerhoff - Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal …, 2018 - pubs.aip.org
We continue the investigation of a one-dimensional piecewise linear map with two
discontinuity points. Such a map may arise from a simple asset-pricing model with …

The stock–bond comovements and cross-market trading

M Li, H Zheng, TTL Chong, Y Zhang - Journal of Economic Dynamics and …, 2016 - Elsevier
We propose an asset pricing model with heterogeneous agents allocating capital to the
stock and bond markets to optimize their portfolios, utilizing the dynamic interaction between …

Time-varying economic dominance in financial markets: A bistable dynamics approach

XZ He, K Li, C Wang - Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear …, 2018 - pubs.aip.org
By developing a continuous-time heterogeneous agent financial market model of multi-

Long memory in financial markets: A heterogeneous agent model perspective

M Zheng, R Liu, Y Li - International review of financial analysis, 2018 - Elsevier
During last decades, studies on asset pricing models witnessed a paradigm shift from
rational expectation and representative agent to an alternative, behavioral view, where …

Some reflections on past and future of nonlinear dynamics in economics and finance

M Anufriev, D Radi, F Tramontana - Decisions in Economics and Finance, 2018 - Springer
This paper offers an overview of the literature on the economic and financial applications of
theory of nonlinear dynamics, especially bifurcation theory. After a short introductory …

Piecewise-linear maps and their application to financial markets

F Tramontana, F Westerhoff - Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and …, 2016 - frontiersin.org
The goal of this paper is to review some work on agent-based financial market models in
which the dynamics is driven by piecewise-linear maps. As we will see, such models allow …
