Generalized Lotka-Volterra (GLV) Models of Stock Markets

The Generalized Lotka-Volterra (GLV) model: provides a general method to simulate, analyze and understand a wide class of phenomena that are characterized by power-law probability distributions: and truncated Levy flights fluctuations . We show how the model applies to economic systems.
