Wealth distribution on complex networks [PDF]

Physical Review E, 2012
We study the wealth distribution of the Bouchaud--M\'ezard (BM) model on complex networks. It has been known that this distribution depends on the topology of network by numerical simulations, however, no one have succeeded to explain it.

Wealth Distribution Involving Psychological Traits and Non-Maxwellian Collision Kernel [PDF]

Entropy
A kinetic exchange model is developed to investigate wealth distribution in a market. The model incorporates a value function that captures the agents’ psychological traits, governing their wealth allocation based on behavioral responses to perceived ...

Inheritances, social classes, and wealth distribution. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2021
We consider a simple theoretical model to investigate the impact of inheritances on the wealth distribution. Wealth is described as a finite resource, which remains constant over different generations and is divided equally among offspring.

Effects of Vaccination Efficacy on Wealth Distribution in Kinetic Epidemic Models [PDF]

Entropy, 2022
The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the close link between economics and health in the context of emergency management. A widespread vaccination campaign is considered the main tool to contain the economic consequences.

The U.S. Wealth Distribution: Off the Charts [PDF]

Socius, 2022
Although extreme and rising levels of U.S. wealth inequality have generated much public and scientific interest, building intuition on the shape and scale of today’s wealth distribution remains difficult. Prior research tends to conceptualize and measure

On the Analysis of Wealth Distribution in the Context of Infectious Diseases [PDF]

Entropy
A mathematical model is established to investigate the economic effects of infectious diseases. The distribution of wealth among two types of agents in the context of the epidemic is discussed.

Multicellular dynamics and wealth distribution in bacteria [PDF]

Molecular Systems Biology
In a variety of infections, bacteria form multicellular communities which contribute to virulence and antibiotic tolerance. The molecular biology of such communities is actively studied, but our understanding of them remains incomplete.

A two-group kinetic wealth model with wealth-gap drift and non-Maxwellian kernels. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
This paper applies statistical mechanics to investigate wealth distribution in binary interactions between two groups of agents. Using an exchange rule with non-zero expected random variables and non-Maxwellian collision kernels, we consider the case ...

Breakdown of the mean-field approximation in a wealth distribution model [PDF]

, 2009
One of the key socioeconomic phenomena to explain is the distribution of wealth. Bouchaud and M\'ezard have proposed an interesting model of economy [Bouchaud and M\'ezard (2000)] based on trade and investments of agents. In the mean-field approximation,

The Displacement Effects of Social Security Wealth in a Transition Economy: The Case of Poland

Gospodarka Narodowa. The Polish Journal of Economics, 2023
Economic theory does not give clear predictions on the impact of social security wealth on private wealth. While the basic life-cycle hypothesis predicts full displacement, many more advanced theoretical contributions anticipate only a limited offset ...
