Extended nonlinear feedback model for describing episodes of high inflation

An extension of the nonlinear feedback (NLF) formalism to describe regimes of hyper- and high-inflation in economy is proposed in the present work. In the NLF model the consumer price index (CPI) exhibits a finite time singularity of the type 1/(tc−t)(1−β)/β, with β>0, predicting a blow up of...
