Abstract

Active users have appeared who require the solution of inverse problems on a graph with conditions of uncertainty for modeling processes in the economic sphere. Such tasks were not considered by mathematicians earlier. This article provides an analogy with mathematical models which are described by a replicator system (RS) of equations related to the stated theme. The exact and asymptotic solutions are developed in the case of “stiff” RS equations. The effects of an a priori dying clone and of the boundary layer for small values of time are found. An analogy is drawn with some objects having similar features, which really exist in the economy. The effect of the existence of shadow, invisible super-consumers is described.

Notes

  1. We talked with skeptics but we found out that they do not drink water from the water supply, they avoid the consumption of palm oil and other factors that lead to the pollution of their blood vessels, etc.
