All rights reserved. We present a variety of issues in modern economics where applied mathematics is needed.

We will focus on a promising venue, namely, quantum probability as a measure of uncertainty, since, unlike Kolmogorov probability, quantum probability, borrowed from quantum physics, is non-additive and non-commutative, thus avoiding Ellsberg’s paradox (of von Neumann’s expected utility) and capturing order effects of human judgements, respectively. Evoking the development of the framework of quantum probability as behavioral probability, as well as a quantum stochastic calculus for, say, financial econometrics, we will discuss various important mathematical research problems which can be classified as applied mathematics. 2019-09-16T12:55:48Z 2019-09-16T12:55:48Z 2019-01-01 Journal 16860209 2-s2.0-85070807568 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=85070807568&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/66705 |
