Heterogeneous beliefs and routes to chaos in a simple asset pricing model

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the dynamics in a simple present discounted value asset pricing model with heterogeneous beliefs, where agents choose from a finite set of predictors of future prices of a risky asset and revise their "beliefs" in each period in a boundedly rational way, according to a fitness measure such as past realized profits.

Agent-based Computational Finance

TL;DR: The authors surveys research on agent-based models used in finance, focusing on models where the use of computational tools is critical for the process of crafting models which give insights into the importance and dynamics of investor heterogeneity in many financial settings.

Time series properties of an artificial stock market

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results from an experimental computer simulated stock market, where artificial intelligence algorithms take on the role of traders and make predictions about the future, and buy and sell stock as indicated by their expectations of future risk and return.

Agent-based computational finance: Suggested readings and early research

TL;DR: The use of computer simulated markets with individual adaptive agents in finance is a new, but growing field as mentioned in this paper, focusing on a set of some of the earliest papers in the area.

Estimation of agent-based models: the case of an asymmetric herding model

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce a simple agent-based model in which the ubiquitous stylized facts (fat tails, volatility clustering) are emergent properties of the interaction among traders.

Differential equations for the heartbeat and nerve impulse

TL;DR: Catastrophic theory provides not only a better conceptual understanding, by giving a single global picture that enables an overall grasp of the phenomenon, but also provides explicit equations for testing experimentally.
