The dynamics of wealth distribution plays a critical role in the economic market, hence an understanding of its nonequilibrium statistical mechanics is of great importance to human society. For this aim, a simple and efficient one-dimensional (1D) lattice gas automaton (LGA) is presented for wealth distribution of agents with or without saving propensity. The LGA comprises two stages, i.e., random propagation and economic transaction. During the former phase, an agent either remains motionless or travels to one of its neighboring empty sites with a certain probability. In the subsequent procedure, an economic transaction takes place between a pair of neighboring agents randomly. It requires at least 4 neighbors to present correct simulation results. The LGA reduces to the simplest model with only random economic transaction if all agents are neighbors and no empty sites exist. The 1D-LGA has a higher computational efficiency than the 2D-LGA and the famous Chakraborti-Chakrabarti economic model. Finally, the LGA is validated with two benchmarks, i.e., the wealth distributions of individual agents and dual-earner families. With the increasing saving fraction, both the Gini coefficient and Kolkata index (for individual agents or two-earner families) reduce, while the deviation degree (defined to measure the difference between the probability distributions with and without saving propensities) increases. It is demonstrated that the wealth distribution is changed significantly by the saving propensity which alleviates wealth inequality.

Empirical distributions of wealth and income can be reproduced using simplified agent-based models of economic interactions, analogous to microscopic collisions of gas particles. Building upon these models of freely interacting agents, we explore the effect of a segregated economic network in which interactions are restricted to those between agents of similar wealth. Agents on a 2D lattice undergo kinetic exchanges with their nearest neighbours, while continuously switching places to minimize local wealth differences. A spatial concentration of wealth leads to a steady state with increased global inequality and a magnified distinction between local and global measures of combatting poverty. Individual saving propensity proves ineffective in the segregated economy, while redistributive taxation transcends the spatial inhomogeneity and greatly reduces inequality. Adding fluctuations to the segregation dynamics, we observe a sharp phase transition to lower inequality at a critical temperature, accompanied by a sudden change in the distribution of the wealthy elite.
We report the numerical results for the steady state income or wealth distribution $P(m)$ and the resulting inequality measures (Gini $g$ and Kolkata $k$ indices) in the kinetic exchange models of market dynamics. We study the variations of $P(m)$ an d of the indices $g$ and $k$ with the saving propensity $lambda$ of the agents, with two different kinds of trade (kinetic exchange) dynamics. One, where the exchange occurs between randomly chosen pairs of agents, other where one of the agents in the chosen pair is the poorest of all and the other agent is randomly picked up from the rest (where, in the steady state, a self-organized poverty level or SOPL appears). These studies have also been made for two different kinds of saving behaviors. One where each agent has the same value of $lambda$ (constant over time) and the other where $lambda$ for each agent can take two values (0 and 1) and changes randomly maintaining a fraction of time $rho(<1)$ of choosing $lambda = 1$. We also study the nature of distributions $P(m)$ and values of the inequality indices ($g$ and $k$) and the SOPL as $lambda$ and $rho$ varies. We find that the inequality decreases with increasing savings ($lambda$).

The statistical mechanics approach to wealth distribution is based on the conservative kinetic multi-agent model for money exchange, where the local interaction rule between the agents is analogous to the elastic particle scattering process. Here, we discuss the role of a class of conservative local operators, and we show that, depending on the values of their parameters, they can be used to generate all the relevant distributions. We also show numerically that in order to generate the power-law tail an heterogeneous risk aversion model is required. By changing the parameters of these operators one can also fine tune the resulting distributions in order to provide support for the emergence of a more egalitarian wealth distribution.

A simple generative model of a foraging society generates significant wealth inequalities from identical agents on an equal opportunity landscape. These inequalities arise in both equilibrium and non-equilibrium regimes with some societies essentiall y never reaching equilibrium. Reproduction costs mitigate inequality beyond their affect on intrinsic growth rate. The highest levels of inequality are found during non-equilibrium regimes. Inequality in dynamic regimes is driven by factors different than those driving steady state inequality.

A money-based model for the power law distribution (PLD) of wealth in an economically interacting population is introduced. The basic feature of our model is concentrating on the capital movements and avoiding the complexity of micro behaviors of ind ividuals. It is proposed as an extension of the Equiluz and Zimmermanns (EZ) model for crowding and information transmission in financial markets. Still, we must emphasize that in EZ model the PLD without exponential correction is obtained only for a particular parameter, while our pattern will give it within a wide range. The Zipf exponent depends on the parameters in a nontrivial way and is exactly calculated in this paper.
