Primes¶
- Diminishing Incremental Gains
- Pareto (1896) supplied the empirical signature: in his Cours d'économie politique, a small share of inputs accounts for the bulk of output, so equalizing marginal returns means ruthlessly reallocating from the long tail to the head of the distribution.
This sourceOriginates the power-law (Pareto) income-distribution regularity in which a small share of inputs accounts for the bulk of output — the long-tail signature motivating portfolio reallocation.

Pareto's preface announces an empirical law: the wealth-distribution curve has a simple mathematical form, roughly the same across countries, basing his distribution theory.
“L'examen des données fournies par la statistique nous a révélé que la courbe représentant la réparti tion de la richesse, affecte une forme dont l'expres sion mathématique est fort simple”

- Heavy-Tailed Distributions
- The concept emerges from probability theory — Pareto's (1896) study of income distribution and the later formalization of stable and power-law laws — but it recurs across finance, geophysics, network science, linguistics, and the size distributions of cities, firms, and files.
This sourceF. Rouge. Originates the empirical regularity that a small fraction of inputs accounts for the majority of output in income distributions and many other systems—the long-tail signature that motivates portfolio-style reallocation away from low-marginal-return activities.

Pareto's preface reports an empirical law for the distribution of wealth, but the income-distribution analysis itself and the cross-domain recurrence are not in this text.

- Pareto Effect (80/20 Rule)
- Vilfredo Pareto's 1896 study of Italian wealth distribution — where approximately 80% of land was held by approximately 20% of the population, with similar ratios recurring across countries and historical periods — provided the foundational empirical anchor

Domain-specific¶
Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 2 of 4 citations: 2 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
