Phase transition in the Galam's majority-rule model with information-mediated independence
André L. Oestereich, Marcelo A. Pires, Silvio M. Duarte Queirós +1
We study the Galam's majority-rule model in the presence of an independent behavior that can be driven intrinsically or can be mediated by information regarding the collective opin…
Tricritical behavior in epidemic dynamics with vaccination
Marcelo A. Pires, Cesar I. N. Sampaio Filho, Hans J. Herrmann +1
We scrutinize the phenomenology arising from a minimal vaccination-epidemic (MVE) dynamics using three methods: mean-field approach, Monte Carlo simulations, and finite-size scalin…
Optimal rewiring in coupled opinion and epidemic dynamics with vaccination
Andre Oestereich, Marcelo Pires, Nuno Crokidakis +1
In this work, we study an epidemic model with vaccination coupled with opinion dynamics in a dynamic network. The network structure evolves as agents with differing opinions discon…
