dear xavier,
are you interested in new econophysics methods (1) of descriptive data
analysis (from quantifying heavy tails to attempting to estimate fractal
dimensions) or in (2) the application of mathematical physics at the
interface of physical modelling and economics (say the use of operational
ensemble weather forecasting in constructing probability forecasts for use
in pricing electricity, weather derivatives, ...)
or both/other?
cheers,
lenny
