Asymptotic analysis of the model for distribution of high-tax payers

The z-transform technique is used to investigate the model for distribution of high-tax payers, which is proposed by two of the authors (K. Y and S. M) and others. Our analysis shows an asymptotic power-law of this model with the exponent -5/2 when a total ``mass'' has a certain critical value. Below the critical value, the system exhibits an ordinary critical behavior, and scaling relations hold. Above the threshold, numerical simulations show that a power-law distribution coexists with a huge ``monopolized'' member. It is argued that these behaviors are observed universally in conserved aggregation processes, by analizing an extended model.

Log-normal distribution in growing systems with weighted multiplicative interactions

Many-body stochastic processes with weighted multiplicative interactions are investigated analytically and numerically. An interaction rate between particles with quantities $x, y$ is controlled by a homogeneous symmetric kernel $K(x, y) \propto x^{w} y^{w}$ with a weight parameter $w$. When $w<0$, a method of moment inequalities is used to derive log-normal type tails in probability distribution functions. The variance of log-normal distributions is expressed in terms of the weight $w$ and interaction parameters. When interactions are weak and a growth rate of systems is small, in particular, the variance is in proportion to the growth rate. This behavior is totally different from that of one-body stochastic processes, where the variance is independent of the growth rate. At $w>0$, Monte Carlo simulations show that the processes end up with a winner-take-all state.
