Abstract
Stochastic modelling of the decision behaviour of individual economic agents using the master equation approach may show cooperative phenomena on the macro level of the economic system. A simple model of strategic investment is presented and briefly discussed.
Zusammenfassung
Die stochastische Modellierung des Entscheidungsverhaltens individueller ökonomischer Agenten mit der Mastergleichung kann zu kooperativen Phänomenen auf der Ebene des ökonomischen Systems führen. Dies wird am Beispiel eines einfachen Modells für strategische Investitionen gezeigt und kurz diskutiert.
