and people two degrees of separation from the agent. In addition, no accurate weight …

The processes of information diffusion across social networks (for example, the spread of

a common understanding that positive social relationships between experts can prompt …

Abstract Information technology has contributed to the spread of public opinion across

We analyze the evolution of fashion based on a network game model. Each agent in this
model is a conformist or a rebel. A conformist prefers to take the action most common among …

Fashion plays such a crucial rule in the evolution of culture and society that it is regarded as

We study a DeGroot-like opinion dynamics model in which agents may oppose other agents.
As an underlying motivation, in our setup, agents want to adjust their opinions to match …

In social network analysis, entropy quantifies the uncertainty or diversity of opinions,
reflecting the complexity of opinion dynamics. To enhance the understanding of how …

We study the fashion game, a classical network coordination/anti-coordination game
employed to model social dynamics in decision-making processes, especially in fashion …
