Interacting multiagent systems. Kinetic equations and Monte Carlo methods (Q2846562)

The book is an unique blend of mathematical tools for analyzing biology, ecology systems, robotics, control theory, sociology and economics, intended for mathematicians, physicists, engineers and computer scientists. It has rigorously dealt with game theory, econometrics, and biology. The study covers artificial intelligence, learning theory using statistical physics. The first part is devoted to kinetic equations, Monte Carlo methods, and numerical analysis. The second part is on modeling and simulation of economic, social, and biological systems with multiple interactions and feedback. Chapters 1 and 2 describe kinetic equations and basic mathematical tools. Monte Carlo methods are given in chapters 3 and 4.NEWLINENEWLINE A very interesting topic of wealth distribution is provided in chapter 5. This describes modeling heterogeneous traders, taxation, and redistributions. The mathematical modeling of opinion are described by Fokker-Plank equations, related to economics, social sciences, and life sciences. The book is an unique treatment of complex topics, integrated into multiagent theory and applications.NEWLINENEWLINE It has two appendices on Fourier transforms and basic probability theory. It provides a plenty of exercises with examples, with exhaustive references. The book is a significant contribution to the emerging field of mathematics, biology and economics.
