Error-driven Global Transition in a Competitive Population on a Network

Disordered Systems and Neural Networks 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We show, both analytically and numerically, that erroneous data transmission generates a global transition within a competitive population playing the Minority Game on a network. This transition, which resembles a phase transition, is driven by a `temporal symmetry breaking' in the global outcome series. The phase boundary, which is a function of the network connectivity pp and the error probability qq, is described quantitatively by the Crowd-Anticrowd theory.
