Wealth redistribution with finite resources
We present a simplified model for the exploitation of finite resources by
interacting agents, where each agent receives a random fraction of the
available resources. An extremal dynamics ensures that the poorest agent has a
chance to change its economic welfare. After a long transient, the system
self-organizes into a critical state that maximizes the average performance of
each participant. Our model exhibits a new kind of wealth condensation, where
very few extremely rich agents are stable in time and the rest stays in the
middle class.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, RevTeX 4 styl
