Uni- vs. bi-directional kinetic exchange models
by Els Heinsalu; Marco Patriarca
International Journal of Computational Economics and Econometrics (IJCEE), Vol. 5, No. 3, 2015

Abstract: We discuss the relation between different formulations of kinetic exchange models in the light of their interpretation as models of non-market or market economies. This allows one to draw some quantitative conclusions about the corresponding differences between the respective wealth distributions, in particular the fact that models of market economies are characterised by more fair equilibrium wealth distributions - i.e., with smaller Gink coefficients.
