nd GLV distributions will be found to give general and stable descriptions of many complex systems that have hitherto been seen as insoluble. What Dewar, Levy and Solomon's systems consist of are three critical elements; a source, a sink, and some sort of self-limiting behaviour. This model is poten

is simply a complicated and interesting sub-section of the MEP function of the earth as a whole. 202 EFTA00625330 Returning to the mathematics, Dewar [Dewar 2005] has produced a seminal paper that derives maximum entropy production from the first principles of information theory and simple maximum

butions, and the split of the returns from labour and capital are all long-standing 'anomalies' within economics. Economists such as Schumpeter and Gabaix have noted these regularities [Gabaix 2009]. Why almost all other economists, even heterodox economists such as Gallegati et al, have shown such dis

appears not to have percolated into the general physics community despite appearing to have general applicability. The ideas of Paltridge, Lorenz, Dewar and others, along with the mathematical techniques of Levy & Solomon, may not be familiar to many physicists, and I believe may be very powerful in

nvariants of this type might lay the foundations for an entirely novel type of theory." Schumpeter (1949, p. 155), discussing the Pareto law — via [Gabaix 2009] This paper introduces some mathematical and simulation models and supports these models with various theoretical ideas from economics, mathem

ormation approach is more obvious mathematically, but like quantum mechanics, somehow seems to imply the necessary presence of an outside observer. Dewar's work, discussed in section 7.3 below may shed some light on this discussion. Both Atkins's and Ben-Naim's books are short and well written, and I

a particular focus of attention, as its form gives rise to constant shares of returns to labour and capital. (I am somewhat reluctant to criticise Gabaix, as he is one of the few economists who has recognised the importance of power-laws and other 'anomalous' invariants in economics. However his quote
