Econophysics and Related Topics

Mieko TANAKA-YAMAWAKI

Abstract Econophysics and its related topics are overviewed from the historical and conceptual
point of view. Unlike many other unsuccessful trials, the recent trend of econophysics that began
at the dawn of the 21st century seems to be doing much better than expected. With the help of
rapid progress of computational tools, econophysics seems finishing its first stage successfully and
preparing the second stage as a part of big data science.
