DOI: 10.1007/s41109-019-0236-y
Abstract: The voter model has been widely studied due to its simple formulation and attainable theoretical treatment. The study of the “active links”, edges that connect nodes in different states, has been a key element in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ejpoleco.2020.101961
Abstract: Abstract We analyze a standard pivotal-voter model under majority rule, with two rival groups of players, each preferring one of two public policies and simultaneously deciding whether to cast a costly vote, as in Palfrey… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-13047-2
Abstract: We study a coevolving nonlinear voter model describing the coupled evolution of the states of the nodes and the network topology. Nonlinearity of the interaction is measured by a parameter q. The network topology changes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1063/1.5134684
Abstract: We compare two versions of the nonlinear q-voter model: the original one, with annealed randomness, and the modified one, with quenched randomness. In the original model, each voter changes its opinion with a certain probability… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1367-2630/aae7f5
Abstract: We present a full stochastic description of the pair approximation scheme to study binary-state dynamics on heterogeneous networks. Within this general approach, we obtain a set of equations for the dynamical correlations, fluctuations and finite-size… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1742-5468/aac14a
Abstract: The voter model is a simple agent-based model to mimic opinion dynamics in social networks: a randomly chosen agent adopts the opinion of a randomly chosen neighbour. This process is repeated until a consensus emerges.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1742-5468/ab409b
Abstract: Numerous models in opinion dynamics focus on the temporal dynamics within a single spatial unit (e.g., country). While the opinions are often observed across multiple spatial units (e.g., polling stations) at a single point in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.102.022314
Abstract: The q-voter model with independence is investigated on multiplex networks with full overlap of nodes in the layers. The layers are various complex networks corresponding to different levels of social influence. Detailed studies are performed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.105.064120
Abstract: Fluctuation relations of Jarzynski and Crooks enable efficient calculations of a free-energy difference between equilibrium states. In the present paper, we provide some numerical evidence that these relations can also be used for a two-dimensional… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.106.014121
Abstract: We introduce a variant of the voter model in which agents may have different degrees of confidence in their opinions. Those with low confidence are normal voters whose state can change upon a single contact… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.107.024106
Abstract: We analyze the scaled voter model, which is a generalization of the noisy voter model with time-dependent herding behavior. We consider the case when the intensity of herding behavior grows as a power-law function of… read more here.
