The analysis of the symbiotic relationship of e-commerce industry clusters from the perspective of chaos theory

This article analyzes the definition and connotation of the e-commerce industry cluster, and then discuss the chaotic characteristics of the cluster from the perspective of chaos theory. Base on the qualitative results, the article discusses the five - level symbiotic relationship of e - commerce industry cluster by using Logistic expansion model, which are competition symbiosis, biased symbiosis, symmetrical reciprocal symbiosis and asymmetric reciprocal symbiosis, parasitic symbiosis. The results indicate the micro-linkage of different groups in the e-commerce cluster and the equilibrium condition of cluster growth. It is significant as the research provide guidance for practice but also provides the possibility for the further application of the method of complexity science.
