Role of Time Scales in the Coupled Epidemic-Opinion Dynamics on Multiplex Networks [PDF]
Entropy, 2022 Modelling the epidemic’s spread on multiplex networks, considering complex human behaviours, has recently gained the attention of many scientists. In this work, we study the interplay between epidemic spreading and opinion dynamics on multiplex networks.

Democratic Thwarting of Majority Rule in Opinion Dynamics: 1. Unavowed Prejudices Versus Contrarians [PDF]
EntropyI study the conditions under which the democratic dynamics of a public debate drives a minority-to-majority transition. A landscape of the opinion dynamics is thus built using the Galam Majority Model (GMM) in a 3-dimensional parameter space for three ...

Decentralized dynamics for finite opinion games [PDF]
Theoretical Computer Science, 2016 Game theory studies situations in which strategic players can modify the state of a given system, due to the absence of a central authority. Solution concepts, such as Nash equilibrium, are defined to predict the outcome of such situations. In multi-player settings, it has been pointed out that to be realistic, a solution concept should be obtainable ...

Chaos in Opinion-Driven Disease Dynamics
EntropyDuring the COVID-19 pandemic, it became evident that the effectiveness of applying intervention measures is significantly influenced by societal acceptance, which, in turn, is affected by the processes of opinion formation.

Construction of an Optimal Strategy: An Analytic Insight Through Path Integral Control Driven by a McKean–Vlasov Opinion Dynamics [PDF]
MathematicsIn this paper, we have constructed a closed-form optimal strategy within a social network using stochastic McKean–Vlasov dynamics. Each agent independently minimizes their dynamic cost functional, driven by stochastic differential opinion dynamics. These

A Hybrid Opinion Formation and Polarization Model
Entropy, 2022 The last decade has witnessed a great number of opinion formation models that depict the evolution of opinions within a social group and make predictions about the evolution process. In the traditional formulation of opinion evolution such as the DeGroot
