Asymmetric Contrarians in Opinion Dynamics [PDF]
Entropy, 2019 Asymmetry in contrarian behavior is investigated within the Galam model of opinion dynamics using update groups of size 3 with two competing opinions A and B.

Opinion dynamics with confirmation bias. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Confirmation bias is the tendency to acquire or evaluate new information in a way that is consistent with one's preexisting beliefs. It is omnipresent in psychology, economics, and even scientific practices.

Opinion Exchange Dynamics [PDF]
Probability Surveys, 2017 We survey a range of models of opinion exchange. From the introduction: "The exchange of opinions between individuals is a fundamental social interaction...

Opinion Dynamics with Bayesian Learning [PDF]
Complexity, 2020 Bayesian learning is a rational and effective strategy in the opinion dynamic process. In this paper, we theoretically prove that individual Bayesian learning can realize asymptotic learning and we test it by simulations on the Zachary network.

Adversarial Perturbations of Opinion Dynamics in Networks [PDF]
ACM Conference on Economics and Computation, 2020 In this paper, we study the connections between network structure, opinion dynamics, and an adversary's power to artificially induce disagreements. We approach these questions by extending models of opinion formation in the mathematical social sciences ...

An Adaptive Bounded-Confidence Model of Opinion Dynamics on Networks [PDF]
J. Complex Networks, 2021 Individuals who interact with each other in social networks often exchange ideas and influence each other's opinions. A popular approach to studying the dynamics of opinion spread on networks is by examining bounded-confidence (BC) models, in which the ...

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.

On symmetric continuum opinion dynamics [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2016 This paper investigates the asymptotic behavior of some common opinion dynamic models in a continuum of agents. We show that as long as the interactions among the agents are symmetric, the distribution of the agents' opinion converges.

Opinion Dynamics on Discourse Sheaves [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2020 We introduce a novel class of Laplacians and diffusion dynamics on discourse sheaves as a model for network dynamics, with application to opinion dynamics on social networks.
