In our simplified description `wealth' is money (mm). A kinetic theory of gas like model of money is investigated where two agents interact (trade) selectively and exchange some amount of money between them so that sum of their money is unchanged and thus total money of all the agents remains conserved. The probabilit…

Many studies in Economics and other disciplines have been reporting distributions following power-law behavior (i.e distributions of incomes (Pareto's law), city sizes (Zipf's law), frequencies of words in long sequences of text etc.)[1, 6, 7]. This widespread observed regularity has been explained in many ways: genera…

A dynamic herding model with interactions of trading volumes is introduced. At time tt, an agent trades with a probability, which depends on the ratio of the total trading volume at time t1t-1 to its own trading volume at its last trade. The price return is determined by the volume imbalance and number of trades. The …
