Greedy algorithms and Zipf laws

We consider a simple model of firm/city/etc growth based on a multi-item criterion: whenever entity B fares better than entity A on a subset of M items out of K, the agent originally in A moves to B. We solve the model analytically in the cases K  =  1 and . The resulting stationary distribution of...
