Opinion Dynamics on Networks [PDF]
Sociophysics has devoted a lot of attention to social influence and opinion dynamics. Among the others, the pioneering works by Galam, where agents randomly gather in groups of different size until consensus is reached, have been used to analyze the spreading of rumors. Galam’s model however, considers only special kinds of social spaces.

Opinion Dynamics with Bayesian Learning [PDF]
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.

OPINION DYNAMICS AND COMMUNICATION NETWORKS [PDF]
This paper examines the interplay of opinion exchange dynamics and communication network formation. An opinion formation procedure is introduced which is based on an abstract representation of opinions as k-dimensional bit-strings. Individuals interact if the difference in the opinion strings is below a defined similarity threshold dI. Depending on dI,

Opinion Dynamics with Limited Information [PDF]
AbstractWe study opinion formation games based on the famous model proposed by Friedkin and Johsen (FJ model). In today’s huge social networks the assumption that in each round agents update their opinions by taking into account the opinions of all their friends is unrealistic.

Opinion Dynamics with Median Aggregation [PDF]
Understanding the formation and evolution of opinions is of broad interdisciplinary interest. Many classical models for opinion formation focus on the impact of different notions of locality, e.g., locality due to network effects among agents or the role of the proximity of opinions.

Dynamics of Opinion Polarization
An evident peculiarity in real-life debates is polarization, which produces the push of people’s opinions to extreme positions. It is a fundamental task to understand if opinion dynamics models built to understand the opinion formation processes can reproduce them.
