On absence of steady state in the Bouchaud-M\'ezard network model

Papers from arXiv.org

Abstract: In the limit of infinite number of nodes (agents), the It\^o-reduced Bouchaud-M\'ezard network model of economic exchange has a time-independent mean and a steady-state inverse gamma distribution. We show that for a finite number of nodes the mean is actually distributed as a time-dependent lognormal and inverse gamma is quasi-stationary, with the time-dependent scale parameter.
