A Biased Review of Sociophysics [PDF]

Journal of Statistical Physics, 2012
Various aspects of recent sociophysics research are shortly reviewed: Schelling model as an example for lack of interdisciplinary cooperation, opinion dynamics, combat, and citation statistics as an example for strong interdisciplinarity.Comment: 16 ...

Tipping Points in Opinion Dynamics: A Universal Formula in Five Dimensions

Frontiers in Physics, 2020
A universal formula is shown to predict the dynamics of public opinion including eventual sudden and unexpected outbreaks of minority opinions within a generic parameter space of five dimensions. The formula is obtained by combining and extending several

Conformity and Mass Media Influence in the Sznajd Model on Regular Lattices [PDF]

Entropy
The polarization of opinions and difficulties in reaching a consensus are central problems of many modern societies. Understanding the dynamics governing those processes is, therefore, one of the main aims of sociophysics.

Precision Measurement of the Return Distribution Property of the Chinese Stock Market Index [PDF]

Entropy, 2022
In econophysics, the analysis of the return distribution of a financial asset using statistical physics methods is a long-standing and important issue. This paper systematically conducts an analysis of composite index 1 min datasets over a 17-year period

Sociophysics Simulations III: Retirement Demography [PDF]

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2005
This third part of the lecture series deals with the question: Who will pay for your retirement? For Western Europe the answer may be ``nobody'', but for Algeria the demography looks more promising.Comment: For 8th Granada seminar (AIP Conf.

Chaos in Opinion-Driven Disease Dynamics [PDF]

Entropy
During 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.

Link updating strategies influence consensus decisions as a function of the direction of communication [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2023
Consensus decision-making in social groups strongly depends on communication links that determine to whom individuals send, and from whom they receive, information.

Mathematical Programming for the Dynamics of Opinion Diffusion

Physics, 2023
The focus of this paper is on analyzing the role and the choice of parameters in sociophysics diffusion models by leveraging the potentialities of sociophysics from a mathematical programming perspective. We first present a generalised version of Galam’s
