Mathematical Social Dynamics: Traditional and New Areas of Research

open access: yesAppliedMath
We present a review on the application of the mathematical models for research on social processes, social structures, and actors in social systems. The scope of the review is not restricted to the classical applications of mathematics such as theory of ...

Sociophysics model of bubbles with neural-stochastic differential equations : a stochastic inflation model

open access: yes
This chapter gives an overview of new results concerning a sociophysics’ theory of bubbles. Following a seminal contribution by (Herzog 2015), we generalize the approach to nonlinear stochastic differential equations.

The Influence of Lobbies: Analyzing Group Consensus from a Physics Approach

open access: yesPhysics
In this paper, we study the influence of a small group of agents (i.e., a lobby) that is trying to spread a rumor in a population by using the known model proposed by Serge Galam.
