MAJORITY-VOTE MODEL ON OPINION-DEPENDENT NETWORK [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics C, 2013 We study a nonequilibrium model with up–down symmetry and a noise parameter q known as majority-vote model (MVM) of Oliveira 1992 on opinion-dependent network or Stauffer–Hohnisch–Pittnauer (SHP) networks. By Monte Carlo (MC) simulations and finite-size scaling relations the critical exponents β∕ν, γ∕ν and 1∕ν and points qc and U* are obtained.

The Distribution of Climate Change Public Opinion in Canada. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 While climate scientists have developed high resolution data sets on the distribution of climate risks, we still lack comparable data on the local distribution of public climate change opinions.

Coevolution of agent’s behavior and noise parameters in majority vote game on multilayer networks
New Journal of Physics, 2019 In many real-world systems, agents’ behaviors are usually coupled with environmental changes. To model their coevolutionary process, we study a non-equilibrium model known as majority vote model coupled with reaction-diffusion processes on a two-layer ...

On the Voting Time of the Deterministic Majority Process [PDF]
, 2015 In the deterministic binary majority process we are given a simple graph where each node has one out of two initial opinions. In every round, every node adopts the majority opinion among its neighbors.

When who and how matter: explaining the success of referendums in Europe [PDF]
, 2017 This article aims to identify the institutional factors that make a referendum successful. This comparative analysis seeks to explain the success of top-down referendums organized in Europe between 2001 and 2013.

The role of inflexible minorities in the breaking of democratic opinion dynamics [PDF]
, 2007 We study the effect of inflexible agents on two state opinion dynamics. The model operates via repeated local updates of random grouping of agents. While floater agents do eventually flip their opinion to follow the local majority, inflexible agents keep

Majority Rule Dynamics in Finite Dimensions
, 2004 We investigate the long-time behavior of a majority rule opinion dynamics model in finite spatial dimensions. Each site of the system is endowed with a two-state spin variable that evolves by majority rule. In a single update event, a group of spins with

The dynamics of public opinion under majority rules [PDF]
Review of Economic Design, 2002 The authors introduce a simple stochastic model of public opinion formation to explain the support for one (out of two) issue. They show that the joint effect of local (neighbourhood) interaction and a tendency to agree with the opinion held by the majority can explain the creation of large homogeneous areas.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
