Kinetic modelling of multiple interactions in socio-economic systems
Giuseppe Toscani, Andrea Tosin, Mattia Zanella
Unlike the classical kinetic theory of rarefied gases, where microscopic interactions among gas molecules are described as binary collisions, the modelling of socio-economic phenom…
Statistical description of human addiction phenomena
Giuseppe Toscani
We study the evolution in time of the statistical distribution of some addiction phenomena in a system of individuals. The kinetic approach leads to build up a novel class of Fokke…
Multiple-interaction kinetic modelling of a virtual-item gambling economy
Giuseppe Toscani, Andrea Tosin, Mattia Zanella
In recent years, there has been a proliferation of online gambling sites, which made gambling more accessible with a consequent rise in related problems, such as addiction. Hence,…
Kinetic modeling of alcohol consumption
Giacomo Dimarco, Giuseppe Toscani
In most countries, alcohol consumption distributions have been shown to possess universal features. Their unimodal right-skewed shape is usually modeled in terms of the Lognormal d…
Hydrodynamic models of preference formation in multi-agent societies
Lorenzo Pareschi, Giuseppe Toscani, Andrea Tosin +1
In this paper, we discuss the passage to hydrodynamic equations for kinetic models of opinion formation. The considered kinetic models feature an opinion density depending on an ad…
