We develop a model of tax evasion based on the Ising model. We augment the model using an appropriate enforcement mechanism that may allow policy makers to curb tax evasion. With a certain probability tax evaders are subject to an audit. If they get caught they behave honestly for a certain number of periods. Simulating the model for a range of parameter combinations, we show that tax evasion may be controlled effectively by using punishment as an enforcement mechanism.

Within the context of agent-based Monte-Carlo simulations, we study the well-known majority-vote model (MVM) with noise applied to tax evasion on simple square lattices, Voronoi-Delaunay random lattices, Barabasi-Albert networks, and Erdos-Renyi rand
om graphs. In the order to analyse and to control the fluctuations for tax evasion in the economics model proposed by Zaklan, MVM is applied in the neighborhod of the noise critical $q_{c}$. The Zaklan model had been studied recently using the equilibrium Ising model. Here we show that the Zaklan model is robust and can be reproduced also through the nonequilibrium MVM on various topologies.
A dynamic agent model is introduced with an annual random wealth multiplicative process followed by taxes paid according to a linear wealth-dependent tax rate. If poor agents pay higher tax rates than rich agents, eventually all wealth becomes concen
trated in the hands of a single agent. By contrast, if poor agents are subject to lower tax rates, the economic collective process continues forever.
Within the context of agent-based Monte-Carlo simulations, we study the well-known majority-vote model (MVM) with noise applied to tax evasion on Stauffer-Hohnisch-Pittnauer (SHP) networks. To control the fluctuations for tax evasion in the economics
model proposed by Zaklan, MVM is applied in the neighborhood of the critical noise $q_{c}$ to evolve the Zaklan model. The Zaklan model had been studied recently using the equilibrium Ising model. Here we show that the Zaklan model is robust because this can be studied besides using equilibrium dynamics of Ising model also through the nonequilibrium MVM and on various topologies giving the same behavior regardless of dynamic or topology used here.
In this research, the tax evasion percentage, as order parameter, of a system of individuals or agents inscribed in a $N = L times L$ 2D square grid is computed. The influence of local environment over each agent is quantified both through competitiv
e exchange integrals (ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic bonds) and dangling bonds randomly distributed, which allows to identify the system with disordered ternary alloys of the type $mathrm{A_textit{p}B_textit{x}C_textit{q}}$ with a certain stoichiometry $(p,x,q)$ particular of each society. Our proposal is based on the so-called spin glass phase present in magnetic systems characterized by disorder, dilution and competitive interactions where magnetic frustration can take place, resembling the way as an individual or agent in a society is able to face a decision. In this sense, agents are identified as Ising spins, which can take two possible values ($sigma = pm 1$), in correspondence with a two-state system where agents can be tax compliant or not. Such an identification between social and physical variables, as well as parameters like an external applied magnetic field or temperature, are topic of discussion in this investigation. Thermalization of the observables is carried out by means of the heat bath algorithm. Other social variables, such as the audit period, and its effects over the percentage of evasion, are used to analyze the behavior of tax evasion in Colombia, however the model can be applied to any country.
This short review presents a selected history of the mutual fertilization between physics and economics, from Isaac Newton and Adam Smith to the present. The fundamentally different perspectives embraced in theories developed in financial economics c
ompared with physics are dissected with the examples of the volatility smile and of the excess volatility puzzle. The role of the Ising model of phase transitions to model social and financial systems is reviewed, with the concepts of random utilities and the logit model as the analog of the Boltzmann factor in statistic physics. Recent extensions in term of quantum decision theory are also covered. A wealth of models are discussed briefly that build on the Ising model and generalize it to account for the many stylized facts of financial markets. A summary of the relevance of the Ising model and its extensions is provided to account for financial bubbles and crashes. The review would be incomplete if it would not cover the dynamical field of agent based models (ABMs), also known as computational economic models, of which the Ising-type models are just special ABM implementations. We formulate the ``Emerging Market Intelligence hypothesis to reconcile the pervasive presence of ``noise traders with the near efficiency of financial markets. Finally, we note that evolutionary biology, more than physics, is now playing a growing role to inspire models of financial markets.
