Timing interactions in social simulations: The voter model

open access: yes, 2013
The recent availability of huge high resolution datasets on human activities has revealed the heavy-tailed nature of the interevent time distributions. In social simulations of interacting agents the standard approach has been to use Poisson processes to

Dynamics of Vacillating Voters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We introduce the vacillating voter model in which each voter consults two neighbors to decide its state, and changes opinion if it disagrees with either neighbor. This irresolution leads to a global bias toward zero magnetization.

Hybrid Zones and Voter Model Interfaces [PDF]

open access: yesBernoulli, 1995
A probabilistic model that predicts the evolution of hybrid zones is considered. One obtains several new results concerning the dynamics of hybrid zones when the dimension is \(\leq 2\).

Effect of network topology on the ordering dynamics of voter models

open access: yes, 2005
We introduce and study the reverse voter model, a dynamics for spin variables similar to the well-known voter dynamics. The difference is in the way neighbors influence each other: once a node is selected and one among its neighbors chosen, the neighbor ...

Finite-size scaling of the majority-voter model above the upper critical dimension

open access: yesCondensed Matter Physics, 2023
The majority-voter model is studied by Monte Carlo simulations on hypercubic lattices of dimension d = 2 to 7 with periodic boundary conditions. The critical exponents associated to the finite-size scaling of the magnetic susceptibility are shown to be ...

Opinion control in complex networks

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
In many political elections, the electorate appears to be a composite of partisan and independent voters. Given that partisans are not likely to convert to a different party, an important goal for a political party could be to mobilize independent voters

Indifferents as an interface between Contra and Pro

open access: yes, 2009
In most sociophysical simulations on public opinion, only two opinions are allowed: Pro and Contra. However, in all political elections many people do not vote.

Stochastic pair approximation treatment of the noisy voter model

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2018
We present a full stochastic description of the pair approximation scheme to study binary-state dynamics on heterogeneous networks. Within this general approach, we obtain a set of equations for the dynamical correlations, fluctuations and finite-size ...

Sharp benefit-to-cost rules for the evolution of cooperation on regular graphs

open access: yes, 2013
We study two of the simple rules on finite graphs under the death-birth updating and the imitation updating discovered by Ohtsuki, Hauert, Lieberman and Nowak [Nature 441 (2006) 502-505].
