A particle method for continuous Hegselmann-Krause opinion dynamics
Bruce Boghosian, Christoph Börgers, Natasa Dragovic +2
We derive a differential-integral equation akin to the Hegselmann-Krause model of opinion dynamics, and propose a particle method for solving the equation. Numerical experiments de…
A geospatial bounded confidence model including mega-influencers with an application to Covid-19 vaccine hesitancy
Anna Haensch, Natasa Dragovic, Christoph Börgers +1
We introduce a geospatial bounded confidence model with mega-influencers, inspired by Hegselmann and Krause. The inclusion of geography gives rise to large-scale geospatial pattern…
Covid-19 vaccine hesitancy and mega-influencers
Anna Haensch, Natasa Dragovic, Christoph Börgers +1
Covid-19 vaccines are widely available in the United States, yet our Covid-19 vaccination rates have remained far below 100%. Not only that, but CDC data shows that even in places…
