Non-Payoff Monotonic Dynamics in an Evolutionary Game of Courtship
Andrés Chacoma, Marcelo N. Kuperman, Damián H. Zanette
We propose an evolutionary coordination game to formalize a simplified model of the evolution of strategies during human courtship. The dynamics, derived from the consideration of…
Critical phenomena in the spreading of opinion consensus and disagreement
Andrés Chacoma, Damián H. Zanette
We consider a class of models of opinion formation where the dissemination of individual opinions occurs through the spreading of local consensus and disagreement. We study the eme…
Dynamics of fashion: The case of given names
Damian H. Zanette
We analyze the social mechanisms that shape the popularity rise and fall of the names given to newborn babies. During the initial stage, popularity increases by imitation. As the p…
Network motifs in music sequences
Damian H. Zanette
This paper has been withdrawn by the author because it needs a deep methodological revision.
A note on the consensus time of mean-field majority-rule dynamics
Damián H. Zanette
In this work, it is pointed out that in the mean-field version of majority-rule opinion dynamics, the dependence of the consensus time on the population size exhibits two regimes.…
Towards the quantification of the semantic information encoded in written language
Marcelo A. Montemurro, Damian Zanette
Written language is a complex communication signal capable of conveying information encoded in the form of ordered sequences of words. Beyond the local order ruled by grammar, sema…
Beyond networks: Opinion formation in triplet-based populations
Damian H. Zanette
We study a process of opinion formation in a population of agents whose interaction pattern is defined on the basis of randomly distributed groups of three agents, or triplets -in…
Music, Complexity, Information
Damian H. Zanette
These are the preparatory notes for a Science & Music essay, "Playing by numbers", appeared in Nature 453 (2008) 988-989.
Analytical approach to bit-string models of language evolution
Damian H. Zanette
A formulation of bit-string models of language evolution, based on differential equations for the population speaking each language, is introduced and preliminarily studied. Connec…
Coevolution of agents and networks in an epidemiological model
Damian H. Zanette
We study the spreading of an infection within an SIS epidemiological model on a network. Susceptible agents are given the opportunity of breaking their links with infected agents,…
Zipf's law and city sizes: A short tutorial review on multiplicative processes in urban growth
Damian H. Zanette
We address the role of multiplicative stochastic processes in modeling the occurrence of power-law city size distributions. As an explanation of the result of Zipf's rank analysis,…
