This work is about the demographic trends and social dynamics observed at the onset and during the evolution of a financial bubble. Our characterization aims to detect demographic trends in the flux of new investors buying the Nokia asset, i.e. the most representative dotcom stock of the Nordic Stock Exchange during the dotcom bubble. The data for our empirical investigation are taken from two...
In the last years the formulation of statistical ensembles of binary and weighted random graphs satisfying some arbitrary constraints has attracted much attention in phys/math communities for its two-fold potential application [1, 2]: (i) The construction of appropriate null models for the statistical validation of high order properties of real networks; (ii) the reconstruction of the...
The progress in high performance computing we are witnessing today offers the possibility of accurate ab initio calculations of structures of systems in realistic physico-chemical conditions. In this talk we present a parameter-free strategy aimed at performing a first-principle computation of the low energy part of the X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) spectrum, based on density functional...
We investigate the process of formation of large-scale structures in a turbulent flow confined in a thin layer. By means of direct numerical simulations of the Navier-Stokes equations, forced at an intermediate scale, we obtain a split of the energy cascade in which one fraction of the input goes to small scales generating the three-dimensional direct cascade. The remaining energy flows to...
