Abstract

In this paper we study the complexity in the information traffic that occurs in the peruvian financial market, using the Shannon entropy. Different series of prices of shares traded on the Lima stock exchange are used to reconstruct the unknown dynamics. We present numerical simulations on the reconstructed dynamics and we calculate the Shannon entropy to measure its complexity
