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…
Synchronization of phase oscillators with heterogeneous coupling: A solvable case
Gabriel H. Paissan, Damian H. Zanette
We consider an extension of Kuramoto's model of coupled phase oscillators where oscillator pairs interact with different strengths. When the coupling coefficient of each pair can b…
Infection spreading in a population with evolving contacts
Damian H. Zanette, Sebastian Risau Gusman
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.…
Global firing induced by network disorder in ensembles of active rotators
Claudio J. Tessone, Damián H. Zanette, Raúl Toral
We study the influence of repulsive interactions on an ensemble of coupled excitable rotators. We find that a moderate fraction of repulsive interactions can trigger global firing…
Demographic growth and the distribution of language sizes
Damian H. Zanette
It is argued that the present log-normal distribution of language sizes is, to a large extent, a consequence of demographic dynamics within the population of speakers of each langu…
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,…
Segmentation and Context of Literary and Musical Sequences
Damian H. Zanette
We test a segmentation algorithm, based on the calculation of the Jensen-Shannon divergence between probability distributions, to two symbolic sequences of literary and musical ori…
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,…
