Microscopic Abrams-Strogatz model of language competition

Computational Physics 2008-01-27 v1

Abstract

The differential equations of Abrams and Strogatz for the competition between two languages are compared with agent-based Monte Carlo simulations for fully connected networks as well as for lattices in one, two and three dimensions, with up to 10^9 agents.
