Wealth Taxation as a Drift Modification: A Fokker-Planck Approach to Tax Neutrality
Anders G Frøseth
The paper recasts a neutral wealth tax model as a stochastic process, showing that a proportional wealth tax acts as a uniform shift in the drift term of a Fokker-Planck equation g…
Heterogeneous Returns and Wealth Tax Neutrality: A Fokker-Planck Framework
Anders G Frøseth
We extend the Fokker-Planck framework of Froseth (2026, arXiv:2603.05283) to populations of investors with heterogeneous, persistent return-generating ability. When the drift coeff…
Minimum-Distortion Wealth Taxation, I: Information-Theoretic versus Transport-Geometric Optimality on the Proportional Class
Anders G Frøseth
We characterise minimum-distortion wealth taxation under two contrasting normative criteria within a Fokker-Planck framework on log-wealth: the JKO free-energy gap, an information-…
From Gravity to Confinement: Wealth Redistribution as Optimal Drift Design in the Fokker-Planck Framework
Anders G Frøseth
A proportional wealth tax acts as a uniform gravitational field on the wealth distribution: it shifts the drift of the Fokker-Planck equation without altering the diffusion, preser…
Tax Migration as Social Contagion: A Tipping-Point Model with Application to the Scandinavian Wealth Tax Debate
Anders G Frøseth
Blandhol (2025) estimates that wealth-tax-induced emigration from Norway reduces long-run GDP by 1.3%. Dansk Industri scaled this figure to argue that a Danish wealth tax would cos…
Flow Taxes, Stock Taxes, and Portfolio Choice: A Generalised Neutrality Result
Anders G Frøseth
A proportional wealth tax - a levy on the stock of wealth - preserves portfolio neutrality by acting as a uniform drift shift in the Fokker-Planck equation for wealth dynamics. We…
