A bounded-confidence model of opinion dynamics on hypergraphs

A Hickok, Y Kureh, HZ Brooks, M Feng… - SIAM Journal on Applied …, 2022 - SIAM
People's opinions evolve with time as they interact with their friends, family, colleagues, and
others. In the study of opinion dynamics on networks, one often encodes interactions …

Bounded-confidence models of opinion dynamics with adaptive confidence bounds

GJ Li, J Luo, MA Porter - arXiv preprint arXiv:2303.07563, 2023 - arxiv.org
People's opinions change with time as they interact with each other. In a bounded-
confidence model (BCM) of opinion dynamics, individuals (which are represented by the …

An adaptive bounded-confidence model of opinion dynamics on networks

U Kan, M Feng, MA Porter - Journal of Complex Networks, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Individuals who interact with each other in social networks often exchange ideas and
influence each other's opinions. A popular approach to study the spread of opinions on …

Emergence of polarization in a sigmoidal bounded-confidence model of opinion dynamics

HZ Brooks, PS Chodrow, MA Porter - SIAM Journal on Applied Dynamical …, 2024 - SIAM
We study a nonlinear bounded-confidence model (BCM) of continuous-time opinion
dynamics on networks with both persuadable individuals and zealots. The model is …

[HTML][HTML] Higher order interactions destroy phase transitions in deffuant opinion dynamics model

H Schawe, L Hernández - Communications Physics, 2022 - nature.com
Most opinion dynamics models are based on pairwise interactions. However in many real
situations, discussions take place within groups of people. Here, we define a higher order …

Opinion fluctuations and disagreement in social networks

D Acemoğlu, G Como, F Fagnani… - Mathematics of …, 2013 - pubsonline.informs.org
We study a tractable opinion dynamics model that generates long-run disagreements and
persistent opinion fluctuations. Our model involves an inhomogeneous stochastic gossip …

[HTML][HTML] Transient behavior of gossip opinion dynamics with community structure

Y Xing, KH Johansson - Automatica, 2024 - Elsevier
We study transient behavior of gossip opinion dynamics, in which agents randomly interact
pairwise over a weighted graph with two communities. Edges within a community have …

Noise-based synchronization of bounded confidence opinion dynamics in heterogeneous time-varying communication networks

W Su, X Wang, G Chen, Y Yu, T Hadzibeganovic - Information Sciences, 2020 - Elsevier
A fundamental question that arises in the analysis of the noise-based synchronization of
opinion dynamics with bounded confidence (BC) is what opinion structures can be …

Consensus, polarization and clustering of opinions in social networks

L Li, A Scaglione, A Swami… - IEEE Journal on Selected …, 2013 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider a variation of the Deffuant-Weisbuch model introduced by Deffuant et al. in
2000, to provide new analytical insights on the opinion dynamics in a social group. We …

Consensus dynamics and opinion formation on hypergraphs

L Neuhäuser, R Lambiotte, MT Schaub - Higher-Order Systems, 2022 - Springer
In this chapter, we derive and analyse models for consensus dynamics on hypergraphs. As
we discuss, unless there are nonlinear node interaction functions, it is always possible to …
