Intermittency on catalysts: Voter model

open access: yesThe Annals of Probability, 2010
In this paper we study intermittency for the parabolic Anderson equation $\partial u/\partial t=κΔu+γξu$ with $u:\mathbb{Z}^d\times[0,\infty)\to\mathbb{R}$, where $κ\in[0,\infty)$ is the diffusion constant, $Δ$ is the discrete Laplacian, $γ\in(0,\infty)$ is the coupling constant, and $ξ:\mathbb{Z}^d\times[0,\infty)\to\mathbb{R}$ is a space--time random

Should I vote-by-mail or in person? The impact of COVID-19 risk factors and partisanship on vote mode decisions in the 2020 presidential election

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
While the evidence is clear that 2020 voters shifted away from Election Day voting in favor of vote-by-mail and early voting, we know very little about how health risk versus party polarization around risk assessment influenced how and when to vote.

Neighborhood Approximations for Non-Linear Voter Models

open access: yesEntropy, 2015
Non-linear voter models assume that the opinion of an agent depends on the opinions of its neighbors in a non-linear manner. This allows for voting rules different from majority voting. While the linear voter model is known to reach consensus, non-linear

Voter models and external influence [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Mathematical Sociology, 2019
In this paper, we extend the voter model (VM) and the threshold voter model (TVM) to include external influences modelled as a jump process. We study the newly-formulated models both analytically and computationally, employing diffusion approximations and mean field approximations.

The model of voter education of women-based democracy volunteers

open access: yesJurnal Civics: Media Kajian Kewarganegaraan, 2021
This study aimed at describing the model of voter education of women-based democracy volunteers in Pekanbaru City and Dumai City. Democracy volunteers are partners in the General Election Commission, who deliver electoral information to the public.

Aging in Some Opinion Formation Models: A Comparative Study

open access: yesPhysics
Changes of mind can become less likely the longer an agent has adopted a given opinion state. This resilience or inertia to change has been called “aging”.

On the role of zealotry in the voter model [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2007
We study the voter model with a finite density of zealots—voters that never change opinion. For equal numbers of zealots of each species, the distribution of magnetization (opinions) is Gaussian in the mean-field limit, as well as in one and two dimensions, with a width that is proportional to , where Z is the number of zealots, independent of the ...

Unveiling the digital persona image: the influence of social media on political candidates’ brand personality and voter behaviour in Kuwait

open access: yesHumanities & Social Sciences Communications, 2023
The research paper examined the interplay between social media, brand personality, and voter behaviour in Kuwait’s unique political environment. The study applied the Aaker model of brand personality to investigate how social media shapes the brand ...

Exploring the adaptive voter model dynamics with a mathematical triple jump

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
Progress in theoretical physics is often made by the investigation of toy models, the model organisms of physics, which provide benchmarks for new methodologies. For complex systems, one such model is the adaptive voter model. Despite its simplicity, the
