  2. Euler spiral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_spiral

    The process of obtaining solution of (x, y) of an Euler spiral can thus be described as: Map L of the original Euler spiral by multiplying with factor a to L′ of the normalized Euler spiral; Find (x′, y′) from the Fresnel integrals; and; Map (x′, y′) to (x, y) by scaling up (denormalize) with factor ⁠ 1 / a ⁠. Note that ⁠ 1 / a ...

  3. Random walk model of consumption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_walk_model_of...

    Robert Hall was the first to derive the effects of rational expectations for consumption. His theory states that if Milton Friedman’s permanent income hypothesis is correct, which in short says current income should be viewed as the sum of permanent income and transitory income and that consumption depends primarily on permanent income, and if consumers have rational expectations, then any ...

  4. Fresnel integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_integral

    The sector contour used to calculate the limits of the Fresnel integrals. This can be derived with any one of several methods. One of them [5] uses a contour integral of the function around the boundary of the sector-shaped region in the complex plane formed by the positive x-axis, the bisector of the first quadrant y = x with x ≥ 0, and a circular arc of radius R centered at the origin.

  5. Econophysics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Econophysics

    One paper has argued that this technique can improve the performance of portfolios, e.g., in applied in portfolio optimization. [17] The ideology of econophysics is embodied in a new probabilistic economic theory and, on its basis, a unified theory of stock markets. [18] [19] There are also analogies between finance theory and diffusion theory.

  6. Fresnel equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_equations

    The Fresnel equations give the ratio of the reflected wave's electric field to the incident wave's electric field, and the ratio of the transmitted wave's electric field to the incident wave's electric field, for each of two components of polarization. (The magnetic fields can also be related using

  7. Wage-price spiral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wage-price_spiral

    An early use of the concept was in 1868. The term "wage-price spiral" appeared in a 1937 New York Times article about the Little Steel strike.In the 1970s, US President Richard Nixon attempted to break what he saw as a "spiral" of prices and costs, by imposing a price freeze, with little effect.

  8. Fresnel diffraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_diffraction

    Fresnel diffraction of circular aperture, plotted with Lommel functions. This is the Fresnel diffraction integral; it means that, if the Fresnel approximation is valid, the propagating field is a spherical wave, originating at the aperture and moving along z. The integral modulates the amplitude and phase of the spherical wave.

  9. Permanent income hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_income_hypothesis

    Until A Theory of Consumption Function, the Keynesian absolute income hypothesis and interpretation of the consumption function were the most advanced and sophisticated. [2] [3] In its post-war synthesis, the Keynesian perspective was responsible for pioneering many innovations in recession management, economic history, and macroeconomics.
