A multi-agent-based approach to tax morale
G. Zaklan, F. W. S. Lima, F. Westerhoff
We embed the behaviour of tax evasion into the standard two-dimensional Ising model. In the presence of an external magnetic field, the Ising model is able to generate the empirica…
Controlling tax evasion fluctuations
Frank Westerhoff, Welington Lima, Georg Zaklan
We incorporate the behaviour of tax evasion into the standard two-dimensional Ising model and augment it by providing policy-makers with the opportunity to curb tax evasion via an…
Analysing tax evasion dynamics via the Ising model
Georg Zaklan, Frank Westerhoff, Dietrich Stauffer
We develop a model of tax evasion based on the Ising model. We augment the model using an appropriate enforcement mechanism that may allow policy makers to curb tax evasion. With a…
Preventing extinction and outbreaks in chaotic populations
Frank M. Hilker, Frank H. Westerhoff
Interactions in ecological communities are inherently nonlinear and can lead to complex population dynamics including irregular fluctuations induced by chaos. Chaotic population dy…
Kinetic Monte-Carlo simulations of sintering
F. Westerhoff, R. Zinetullin, D. E. Wolf
We simulate the sintering of particle aggregates due to surface diffusion. As a method we use Kinetic Monte-Carlo simulations in which elasticity can explicitly be taken into accou…
Market depth and price dynamics: A note
Frank Westerhoff
This note explores the consequences of nonlinear price impact functions on price dynamics within the chartist-fundamentalist framework. Price impact functions may be nonlinear with…
