developed in the econophysics literature since the late 1990s. By analogy with the …

The distribution of wealth and income is never uniform, and philosophers and economists
have tried for years to understand the reasons and formulate remedies for such inequalities …

The One Parameter Inequality Process (OPIP) long predates the Saved Wealth Model

We review the basic kinetic wealth-exchange models of Angle [J. Angle, Social Forces 65,
293 (1986); J. Math. Sociol. 26, 217 (2002)], Bennati [E. Bennati, Rivista Internazionale di …

We propose a novel kinetic exchange model differing from previous ones in two main
aspects. First, the basic dynamics is modified in order to represent economies where …

We discuss several multi-agent models that have their origin in the kinetic exchange theory
of statistical mechanics and have been recently applied to a variety of problems in the social …

Some general features of statistical multi-agent economic models are reviewed, with
particular attention to the dependence of the equilibrium wealth distribution on the agents' …
