Luigi Amoroso was an Italian
neoclassical economist influenced by Vilfredo Pareto
. He provided support for and influenced the economic policy during the fascist regime. The microeconomical concept of the Amoroso-Robinson relation is named after him (and Joan Robinson
): according to paper he is one of the first economist
s to study the dynamical equilibrium theory, using an analogy between economic system

and thus applying to theories of economical behaviour mathematical tools as the calculus of variation. In his young years he contributed to the theory of functions of several complex variables
, giving for the first time a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the Dirichlet problem
for holomorphic functions of several variables in the paper . Also, in 1927 he provided to his former Normale schoolfellow Mauro Picone
the funding for the creation of the Istituto Nazionale per le Applicazioni del Calcolo, now called Istituto per le Applicazioni del Calcolo "Mauro Picone" by means of a local bank.

Economic system
An economic system is the combination of the various agencies, entities that provide the economic structure that defines the social community. These agencies are joined by lines of trade and exchange along which goods, money etc. are continuously flowing. An example of such a system for a closed...
