From classical to active particles: Mathematical tools for social dynamics and behavioral economics

This paper provides a critical overview of the mathematical kinetic theory of active particles, which is used to model and study collective systems consisting of interacting living entities, such as those involved in behavior and evolution. The main objective is to study the interactions of large systems of living entities mathematically. More specifically, the study relates to the complex features of living systems and the mathematical tools inspired by statistical physics. The focus is on the
