Chami Figueira, F.; Moura, N.J.; Ribeiro, M.B. - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 390 (2011) 4, pp. 689-698

This work analyzes the Gompertz–Pareto distribution (GPD) of personal income, formed by the combination of the Gompertz curve, representing the overwhelming majority of the economically less favorable part of the population of a country, and the Pareto power law, which describes its tiny...
