**About the Editors**

**Petr Jizba** is an assistant professor at the Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering of the Czech Technical University in Prague. He obtained his Ph.D. in theoretical physics at the University of Cambridge. After his graduation, he spent several years as a researcher at the Tsukuba University in Japan and as a Humboldt fellow at the Freie Universit¨at in Berlin. His main interests are quantum field theory and quantum mechanics, statistical physics, and econophysics. His main research topics are the applications of the path and functional integral in quantum field theory and quantum mechanics, the applications of generalized entropies in complex systems, information transfer in a complex time series, and the applications of superstatistics in econophyiscs. He is co-author of the book "Quantum Field Theory and its Macroscopic Manifestations: Boson condensation, ordered patterns and topological defects".

**Jan Korbel** is a Postdoc at the Section of Science for Complex Systems of the Medical University of Vienna and the Complexity Science Hub Vienna. He obtained his Ph.D. in mathematical physics at the Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering of the Czech Technical University in Prague under the supervision of Petr Jizba. During his doctoral studies, he spent a year as a research intern at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science. He also spent a year as a postdoc at Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China. His main interests are non-equilibrium statistical physics, complex systems, and econophysic. His main research topics are the applications of non-standard entropies in non-equilibrium thermodynamics, financial time series analysis (multifractals, superstatistics, fractional calculus), and the applications of information theory in statistical physics and econophysics.
