1 More Is Different Sorin Solomon HUJ and ISI Real world is controlled … –by the exceptional, not the mean; –by the catastrophe, not the steady drip; –by the very rich, not the ‘middle class’. we need to free ourselves from ‘average’ thinking. Philip Anderson

2 Executive Abstract: The Multi-Agent Complex Systems approach identifies -singular local elements of change / growth (even at early stages where, as whole, the system seems in regress) -spatio-temporal patterns of growth relevant resources - socio-economic / human interactive causal mechanisms leading to growth (e.g. education / cultural level / tradition). Concrete interdisciplinary example: post-liberalization Poland - identifies emergence of resilient, sustainable, developing patterns likely to support sustainable global growth - prediction of (space-time) singular fluctuation patterns that may lead to increased social inequality and economic instability (but also to novelty emergence) The classical paradigms fail in predicting emergence of novelty / development in bio/ cogni / socio/ econo systems - Extension of study to other regions / disciplines

3 “Almost all the social phenomena … obey the logistic growth” Elliot W Montroll I would urge… logistic equation early in the education … in the everyday world of politics and economics Lord Robert May - Nonlinear Terms (Competion/Saturation) Growth ~  Size “continuum” Logistic Solution: uniform in space and time:  < 0 Size  TIME

4 In reality, in Growth ~  Size,   is the result of multi-agent spatio-temporal distributed discrete contributions This leads to a complex solution presenting fractal / intermittent collective macro-objects with self-organized adaptive behavior Theorem: resilience and sustainability even for <0 Logistic Differential Equation  < 0 Logistic Multi-Agent Prediction     TIME Size

10 EDUCATION (‘88) !!!! Nowak the A’s ! Andrzej Nowak lab

11 EDUCATION (‘88) (note complete correspondence with growth areas AFTER but NOT BEFORE liberalization !) Nowak

12 Economic Growth is in turn “A’s” for Political Transformation Voting for Reformist Parties Nowak

13 Fractal Wealth Distribution: Scaling; Power laws Zipfplot of thewealthsof the investors in the Forbes 400 of 2003 vs. their ranks. The corresponding model results are shown in the inset. Dell Buffet 20 ALLEN GATES WALMART No one however, has yet exhibited a stable social order, ancient or modern, which has not followed the Pareto pattern… Davis; Cowles Commission for Research in Economics Pareto’s curve … great generalizations of human knowledge. Snyder 1939

14 stochastic Logistic systems=> Pareto Laws Theorem : Generically The 100 year old Pareto puzzle is solved by combining the 100 year old logistic Lotka-Volterra equation with the 100 year old Boltzmann Statistical Mechanics Wide Interdisciplinary Experimental Confirmation Nr of Species vs individuals size Nr of Species vs number of specimens Nr of Species vs their life time Nr of Languages vs number of speakers Nr of countries vs population / size Nr of towns vs. population Nr of product types vs. number of units sold Nr of treatments vs number of patients treated Nr of patients vs cost of treatment Nr of moon craters vs their size Nr of earthquakes vs their strenth Nr of meteorites vs their size Nr of voids in universe vs their size Nr of galaxies vs their size Nr of rives vs the size of their basin

15 Globalization (efficient but unstable fluctuations) Local Consumption Economy (inefficient but very stable (if population is stable)) Theorem: Logistic Multi-Agent Systems=>Intermittent Fluctuations

16 Distribution of individual wealth ~ (by MACS Prediction) Distribution of global financial fluctuations Social equity is good for the financial stability ! Levy

20 Conclusions The connections between the main ubiquitous complexity features Pareto-Zipf scaling laws / Levy-stable fat-tail fluctuations, Fractal-Intermittent singular spatio-temporal Growth patterns, Logistic Malthus-Verhulst-Lotka-Volterra-Eigen-Schuster system Percolation, phase transitions, Emergence of adaptive objects can be understood and expressed within a comprehensive coherent interdisciplinary research framework. Its applicability in monitoring and inducing novelty emergence, social change, stable economic growth and sustainable development has been demonstrated.
