Quadratic Hawkes (QHawkes) processes have proved effective at reproducing the statistics of price changes, capturing many of the stylised facts of financial markets.

We relax the strong rationality assumption for the agents in the paradigmatic Kyle model of price formation, thereby reconciling the framework of asymmetrically informed traders with the Adaptive Market Hypothesis, where agents use inductive rather than deductive reasoning.

The Slutsky equation, central in consumer choice theory, is derived from the usual hypotheses underlying most standard models in Economics, such as full rationality, homogeneity, and absence of interactions.

The stability condition for Hawkes processes and their non-linear extensions usually relies on the condition that the mean intensity is a finite constant.

We compare the predictions of the stationary Kyle model, a microfounded multi-step linear price impact model in which market prices forecast fundamentals through information encoded in the order flow, with those of the propagator model, a purely data-driven model in which trades mechanically impact prices with a time-decaying kernel.

Inspired by ideas coming from systems biology, we show that for multiple macroeconomic models, including an agent-based model and several Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) models, there are only a few stiff parameter combinations that have strong effects, while the other sloppy directions are irrelevant.

We develop a tractable macroeconomic model that captures dynamic behaviors across multiple timescales, including business cycles.

In the General Theory, Keynes remarked that the economy's state depends on expectations, and that these expectations can be subject to sudden swings.

Synchronising a database of stock specific news with 5 years worth of order book data on 300 stocks, we show that abnormal price movements following news releases (exogenous) exhibit markedly different dynamical features from those arising spontaneously (endogenous).

Trading a financial asset pushes its price as well as the prices of other assets, a phenomenon known as cross-impact.

We study a self-reflexive DSGE model with heterogeneous households, aimed at characterising the impact of economic recessions on the different strata of the society.

We show that the time needed to reach equilibrium diverges to infinity as the system approaches an instability point beyond which the Hawkins-Simons condition is violated and competitive equilibrium is no longer admissible.

We provide an economically sound micro-foundation to linear price impact models, by deriving them as the equilibrium of a suitable agent-based system.

We find that the Zumbach kernel is a power-law of time, as are all other feedback kernels.

Crowding is most likely an important factor in the deterioration of strategy performance, the increase of trading costs and the development of systemic risk.

Empirical data reveals that the liquidity flow into the order book (depositions, cancellations andmarket orders) is influenced by past price changes.

Using a large database of 8 million institutional trades executed in the U. S. equity market, we establish a clear crossover between a linear market impact regime and a square-root regime as a function of the volume of the order.
