A Minimal Dynamical Model for Incubation-Outbreak Transitions in Social Norm Diffusion
Run Wang, Leonardo Cianfanelli, Giacomo Como +1
In this paper, we introduce a minimal dynamical model for the diffusion of a new social norm, in which individuals transition among three states: non-supporters, silent supporters,…
Convergence Analysis of Weighted-Median Opinion Dynamics with Prejudice
Ruichang Zhang, Zhixin Liu, Ge Chen +1
The Friedkin-Johnsen (FJ) model introduces prejudice into the opinion evolution and has been successfully validated in many practical scenarios; however, due to its weighted averag…
Modeling, Analysis, and Control of Continuous-Time Weighted-Median Opinion Dynamics
Yi Han, Julien M. Hendrickx, Ge Chen +1
Simple yet predictive mathematical models are essential for mechanistic understanding of opinion evolution in social groups. The weighted-median mechanism has recently been propose…
Convergence, Consensus and Dissensus in the Weighted-Median Opinion Dynamics
Wenjun Mei, Julien M. Hendrickx, Ge Chen +2
Mechanistic and tractable mathematical models play a key role in understanding how social influence shapes public opinions. Recently, a weighted-median mechanism has been proposed…
Interplay Between Homophily-Based Appraisal Dynamics and Influence-Based Opinion Dynamics: Modeling and Analysis
Fangzhou Liu, Shaoxuan Cui, Wenjun Mei +2
In social systems, the evolution of interpersonal appraisals and individual opinions are not independent processes but intertwine with each other. Despite extensive studies on both…
Convergence Properties of the Heterogeneous Deffuant-Weisbuch Model
Ge Chen, Wei Su, Wenjun Mei +1
The Deffuant-Weisbuch (DW) model is a bounded-confidence opinion dynamics model that has attracted much recent interest. Despite its simplicity and appeal, the DW model has proved…
