Complex Systems with Trivial Dynamics

Abstract

In this communication, complex systems with a near trivial dynamics are addressed. First, under the hypothesis of equiprobability in the asymptotic equilibrium, it is shown that the (hyper) planar geometry of an $N$-dimensional multi-agent economic system implies the exponential (Boltzmann-Gibss) wealth distribution and that the spherical geometry of a gas of particles implies the Gaussian (Maxwellian) distribution of velocities. Moreover, two non-linear models are proposed to explain the decay of these statistical systems from an out-of-equilibrium situation toward their asymptotic equilibrium states.
