Parkinson's Law Quantified: Three Investigations on Bureaucratic Inefficiency
Peter Klimek, Rudolf Hanel, Stefan Thurner
We formulate three famous, descriptive essays of C.N. Parkinson on bureaucratic inefficiency in a quantifiable and dynamical socio-physical framework. In the first model we show ho…
Towards a physics of evolution: Existence of gales of creative deconstruction in evolving technological networks
Rudolf Hanel, Stuart A. Kauffman, Stefan Thurner
Systems evolving according to the standard concept of biological or technological evolution are often described by catalytic evolution equations. We study the structure of these eq…
Unanimity Rule on networks
Renaud Lambiotte, Stefan Thurner, Rudolf Hanel
We introduce a model for innovation-, evolution- and opinion dynamics whose spreading is dictated by unanimity rules, i.e. a node will change its (binary) state only if all of its…
Random matrix ensembles of time-lagged correlation matrices: Derivation of eigenvalue spectra and analysis of financial time-series
Christoly Biely, Stefan Thurner
We derive the exact form of the eigenvalue spectra of correlation matrices derived from a set of time-shifted, finite Brownian random walks (time-series). These matrices can be see…
