Dear Ma'am or Sir: Please distribute the following Call for Chapters for the upcoming book, Fractal Approaches for Modeling Financial Assets and Predicting Crises, throughout your subscribership at the Academy of International Business at your convenience. Please note this Call does have an international business component. Chapter Proposals are due by May 31, 2017 and full chapters are due by June 1 due to the time constraints involved. http://www.igi-global.com/publish/call-for-papers/call-details/2456 Additional information: Editors Inna Nekrasova, PhD, Associate professor, Economics Department, Southern Federal University Oxana Karnaukhova, PhD, Associate professor, Institute of History and International Relations, Southern Federal University Dr. Bryan Christiansen, PryMarke LLC (USA) Call for Chapters Proposals Submission Deadline: January 31, 2017 Full Chapters Due: April 30, 2017 Submission Date: August 30, 2017 IntroductionThe modern financial market is characterized by considerable complexity occurring when it proceeds. Financial markets have become more volatile, complex, risky and deregulated. In these circumstances standard methods for modeling time series and forecasting dinamics within the financial markets often demonstrate poor results. Therefore, there is a gap between the actual economic realities and still existing economic theories. Since 1920s until 1970s fundamental and technical analyses have dominated. Then, great attention was paid to the study of financial time series in terms of the theory of chaos. 1. Stage of dissipative structures (1950-1980). The concept of "dissipative structures" was introduced by I. Prigogine, the founder of the modern complexity theory, Nobel laureate. 2.Stage of dynamic chaos (from the beginning of 1980s. to the present). The term 'deterministic or dynamic chaos' as the unpredictable behavior of deterministic systems was introduced to academic circulation in 1975 by T.-U. Lee and G. York. The need for the book is based on the idea of calculating the fractal properties of space and time of financial instruments as an opportunity to forcast future price values in more accurate way. ObjectiveObjectives of the book is studying fractal structure and long-term memory of the financial markets in order to predict prices of financial assets and financial crisis. Expected results are following: -identification of criteria to select financial assets for investment; -development of a technique that allows to classify a financial crisis and identify a "financial bubble"; -creation of a randomized algorithm of R / S-analysis, which allows to give a more accurate assessment of the fractal dimension in the financial markets; -implementation of adaptive modeling to identify bifurcation points, which give birth to possibility of crisis phenomena in an economy; -exploitation of computer programs to calculate parameters of the financial markets status and trading signals. Target AudienceThe primary audience that will gain benefits from the book are leading academics and practitioners who need a single reference source in the specified field. The secondary audience consists of business executives. Finally, undergraduate/graduate business students are the third target audience that requires the reference materials. Recommended TopicsThe Advances in Finance, Accounting, and Economics (AFAE) book series aims to publish comprehensive and informative titles in all areas of economics and economic theory, finance, and accounting to assist in advancing the available knowledge and providing for further research development in these dynamic fields.
