A model of phase-coupled delay equations for the dynamics of word usage
Alejandro Pardo Pintos, Diego Shalom, Enzo Tagliazucchi +2
Cycles of word usage have been described using an integro-differential Volterra model close to a Hopf bifurcation. Here we transform this system to a phase model, which allows us t…

Cognitive forces shape the dynamics of word usage across multiple languages
Alejandro Pardo Pintos, Diego E Shalom, Enzo Tagliazucchi +2
The analysis of thousands of time series in different languages reveals that word usage presents oscillations with a prevalence of 16-year cycles, mounted on slowly varying trends.…
