Within the context of agent-based Monte-Carlo simulations, we study the problem of the fluctuations of tax evasion in a community of honest citizens and tax evaders by using the version of the nonequilibrium Zaklan model proposed by Lima (2010). The studied evolutionary dynamics of tax evasion are driven by a non-equilibrium majority-vote model of M. J. Oliveira, with the objective to attempt to control the fluctuations of the tax evasion in the observed community in which citizens are localized on the nodes of the Stauffer–Hohnisch–Pittnauer networks.

In this paper, we use the version of the nonequilibrium Zaklan model via agent-based Monte-Carlo simulations to study the problem of the fluctuations of the tax evasion on a heterogeneous agents community of honest and tax evaders citizens. The time evolution of this system is performed by a nonequilibrium model known as majority-vote model, but with a different probability for each agent to disobey the majority vote of its neighbors.

The Zaklan model had been proposed and studied recently using the equilibrium Ising model on square lattices (SLs) by [G. Zaklan, F. Westerhoff and D. Stauffer, J. Econ. Interact. Coord.4, 1 (2008), arXiv:0801.2980; G. Zaklan, F. W. S. Lima and F. Westerhoff, Physica A387, 5857 (2008)], near the critical temperature of the Ising model presenting a well-defined phase transition; but on normal and modified Apollonian networks (ANs), [J. S. Andrade, Jr., H. J. Herrmann, R. F. S. Andrade, and L. R. da Silva, Phys. Rev. Lett.94, 018702 (2005); R. F. S. Andrade, J. S. Andrade Jr. and H. J. Herrmann, Phys. Rev. E79, 036105 (2009)] studied the equilibrium Ising model. They showed the equilibrium Ising model not to present on ANs a phase transition of the type for the 2D Ising model. Here, using agent-based Monte Carlo simulations, we study the Zaklan model with the well-known majority-vote model (MVM) with noise and apply it to tax evasion on ANs, to show that differently from the Ising model the MVM on ANs presents a well-defined phase transition. To control the tax evasion in the economics model proposed by Zaklan et al., MVM is applied in the neighborhood of the critical noise qc to the Zaklan model. Here we show that the Zaklan model is robust because this can also be studied, besides using equilibrium dynamics of Ising model, through the nonequilibrium MVM and on various topologies giving the same behavior regardless of dynamic or topology used here.

In this work, we use Monte-Carlo simulations to study the control of the fluctuations for tax evasion in the economics model proposed by [G. Zaklan, F. Westerhoff and D. Stauffer, J. Econ. Interact. Coordination. 4 (2009) 1; G. Zaklam, F.W.S. Lima and F. Westerhofd, Physica A 387 (2008) 5857.] via a nonequilibrium model with two states ([Formula: see text]) and a noise [Formula: see text] proposed for [M. J. Oliveira, J. Stat. Phys. 66 (1992) 273] and known as Majority-Vote model (MVM) and Sánchez–López-Rodríguez model on communities of agents or persons on some topologies as directed and undirected Barabási–Albert networks and Erdös–Rényi random graphs, Apollonian networks, directed small-world networks and Stauffer–Hohnisch–Pittnauer networks. The MVM is applied around the noise critical [Formula: see text] to evolve the Zaklan model.

On Archimedean lattices, the Ising model exhibits spontaneous ordering. Two examples of these lattices of the majority-vote model with noise are considered and studied through extensive Monte Carlo simulations. The order/disorder phase transition is observed in this system. The calculated values of the critical noise parameter are qc = 0.091(2) and qc = 0.134(3) for (3, 4, 6, 4) and (34, 6) Archimedean lattices, respectively. The critical exponents β/ν, γ/ν and 1/ν for this model are 0.103 (6), 1.596 (54), 0.872 (85) for (3, 4, 6, 4) and 0.114 (3), 1.632 (35), 0.98 (10) for (34, 6) Archimedean lattices. These results differs from the usual Ising model results and the majority-vote model on so-far studied regular lattices or complex networks. The effective dimensionalities of the system [D eff (3, 4, 6, 4) = 1.802(55) and D eff (34, 6) = 1.860(34)] for these networks are reasonably close to the embedding dimension two.

On directed Barabási–Albert networks with two and seven neighbours selected by each added site, the Ising model was seen not to show a spontaneous magnetisation. Instead, the decay time for flipping of the magnetisation followed an Arrhenius law for Metropolis and Glauber algorithms, but for Wolff cluster flipping the magnetisation decayed exponentially with time. On these networks the Majority-vote model with noise is now studied through Monte Carlo simulations. However, in this model, the order-disorder phase transition of the order parameter is well defined in this system. We calculate the value of the critical noise parameter qc for several values of connectivity z of the directed Barabási–Albert network. The critical exponentes β/ν, γ/ν and 1/ν were calculated for several values of z.

We investigate the critical properties of the equilibrium and nonequilibrium two-dimensional (2D) systems on Solomon networks with both nearest and random neighbors. The equilibrium and nonequilibrium 2D systems studied here by Monte Carlo simulations are the Ising and Majority-vote 2D models, respectively. We calculate the critical points as well as the critical exponent ratios [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text]. We find that numerically both systems present the same exponents on Solomon networks (2D) and are of different universality class than the regular 2D ferromagnetic model. Our results are in agreement with the Grinstein criterion for models with up and down symmetry on regular lattices.

We developed an agent-based model of endothelial sprout initiations based on time-lapse confocal imaging in vitro that outperforms Monte Carlo simulations, suggesting that sprout location and frequency are not purely stochastic behaviors.
