Complex Dynamics in Non-linear Real Estate Models
Gkana, A.; Zachilas, L.; Arvanitidis, P. (2013)In the present paper we study the complex dynamics of non-linear cobweb models of real estate markets in discrete time. Our model incorporates two sub-markets, land and housing, interacting with each other. We start by ... -
Incorporating prey refuge in a prey-predator model with a Holling type I functional response: random dynamics and population outbreaks
Gkana, A.; Zachilas, L. (2013)A prey-predator discrete-time model with a Holling type I functional response is investigated by incorporating a prey refuge. It is shown that a refuge does not always stabilize prey-predator interactions. A prey refuge ... -
Non-overlapping Generation Species: Complex Prey-Predator Interactions
Gkana, A.; Zachilas, L. (2015)In this paper we study a prey-predator dynamical system suitable for species having no overlap between successive generations. Assuming that population evolves in discrete-time steps we investigate the prey refuge effect ... -
Nonlinear supply and demand model with two interrelated markets
Zachilas, L.; Gkana, A. (2011)Our target in this paper is to observe how the presence of nonlinear terms in the supply and demand model changes the price behavior of the system. The dynamical analysis refers, mainly, to discrete dynamical systems. We ... -
On the Verge of a Grand Solar Minimum: A Second Maunder Minimum?
Zachilas, L.; Gkana, A. (2015)We analyze the yearly mean sunspot-number data covering the period 1700 to 2012. We show that the yearly sunspot number is a low-dimensional deterministic chaotic system. We perform future predictions trying to forecast ... -
Sunspot numbers: Data analysis, predictions and economic impacts
Gkana, A.; Zachilas, L. (2015)We analyze the monthly sunspot number (SSN) data from January 1749 to June 2013. We use the Average Mutual Information and the False Nearest Neighbors methods to estimate the suitable embedding parameters. We calculate the ...
