Stochastic resonance in a model of opinion formation on small-world networks
Marcelo Kuperman, Damian Zanette
We analyze the phenomenon of stochastic resonance in an Ising-like system on a small-world network. The system, which is subject to the combined action of noise and an external mod…
Dynamics of rumor propagation on small-world networks
Damian H. Zanette
We study the dynamics of an epidemic-like model for the spread of a rumor on a small-world network. It has been shown that this model exhibits a transition between regimes of local…
Effects of immunization in small-world epidemics
Damian H. Zanette, Marcelo Kuperman
The propagation of model epidemics on a small-world network under the action of immunization is studied. Although the connectivity in this kind of networks is rather uniform, a vac…
Entropic analysis of the role of words in literary texts
Marcelo A. Montemurro, Damian H. Zanette
Beyond the local constraints imposed by grammar, words concatenated in long sequences carrying a complex message show statistical regularities that may reflect their linguistic rol…
Criticality of rumor propagation on small-world networks
Damian H. Zanette
We show that a simple model for the propagation of a rumor on a small-world network exhibits critical behavior at a finite randomness of the underlying graph. The transition occurs…
Critical behavior of propagation on small-world networks
Damian H. Zanette
We report numerical evidence that an epidemic-like model, which can be interpreted as the propagation of a rumor, exhibits critical behavior at a finite randomness of the underlyin…
Self-similarity in the taxonomic classification of human languages
Damian H. Zanette
Statistical properties of the taxonomic classification of human languages are studied. It is shown that, at the highest levels of the taxonomic hierarchy, the frequency of taxon me…
