Phase transitions, memory and frustration in a Sznajd-like model with synchronous updating

Abstract

We introduce a consensus model inspired by the Sznajd Model. The updating is synchronous and memory plays here a decisive role in making possible the reaching of total consensus. We study the phase transition between the state with no-consensus to the state with total consensus.
