Summary:
The Black Swan refers to an unexpected and unforeseen high impact event. Such Black Swans constitute a major blind spot for individuals and organizations alike and highlight the limits to our knowledge. This entry connects the rise of such Black Swans to the statistical properties of power law distributions, and the centuries-old induction problem and highlights new developments in the study of similar, but distinct, knowledge problems such as volatility, uncertainty, complexity, ambiguity, and equivocality.
