We study the homogeneous symmetrical threshold model with independence (noise) by pair approximation and Monte Carlo simulations on Watts-Strogatz graphs. The model is a modified version of the famous Granovetter's threshold model: with…
In this paper we study nonlinear $q$-voter model with stochastic driving on a complete graph. We investigate two types of stochasticity that, using the language of social sciences, can be interpreted as different kinds of nonconformity.…
The order-disorder phase transition is a fascinating phenomenon in opinion dynamics models within sociophysics. This transition emerges due to noise parameters, interpreted as social behaviors such as anticonformity and independence…
In this work we study the majority-vote model with the presence of two distinc noises. The first one is the usual noise $q$, that represents the probability that a given agent follows the minority opinion of his/her social contacts. On the…
Independence and anticonformity are two types of social behaviors known in social psychology literature and the most studied parameters in the opinion dynamics model. These parameters are responsible for continuous (second-order) and…
Discontinuous phase transitions are closely linked to tipping points, critical mass effects, and hysteresis, phenomena that have been confirmed empirically and recognized as highly important in social systems. The multistate $q$-voter…
We study an asymmetric version of the threshold model with anticonformity under asynchronous update mode that mimics continuous time. We study this model on a complete graph using three different approaches: mean-field approximation, Monte…
We explore the impact of social noise, characterized by nonconformist behavior, on the phase transition within the framework of the majority rule model. The order-disorder transition can reflect the consensus-polarization state in a social…
We introduce a generalized version of the noisy $q$-voter model, one of the most popular opinion dynamics models, in which voters can be in one of $s \ge 2$ states. As in the original binary $q$-voter model, which corresponds to $s=2$, at…
In this work we study a 3-state opinion formation model considering two distinct mechanisms, namely independence and conviction. Independence is introduced in the model as a noise, by means of a probability of occurrence $q$. On the other…
In this paper, we generalize the original majority-vote (MV) model with noise from two states to arbitrary $q$ states, where $q$ is an integer no less than two. The main emphasis is paid to the comparison on the nature of phase transitions…
We investigate the collective dynamics of a population of XY model-type oscillators, globally coupled via non-separable interactions that are randomly chosen from a positive or negative value, and subject to thermal noise controlled by…
We use Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling theory to investigate the phase transition and critical behavior of the $S$-state block voter model on square lattices. It is shown that the system exhibits an order-disorder phase…
In this paper, we investigate phase transitions in the Majority-Vote model coupled with noise layers of different structures. We examine the Square lattice and Random-regular networks, as well as their combinations, for both vote layers and…
We generalize the original majority-vote model by incorporating an inertia into the microscopic dynamics of the spin flipping, where the spin-flip probability of any individual depends not only on the states of its neighbors, but also on…
We theoretically study noise-induced phase switch phenomena in an inertial majority-vote (IMV) model introduced in a recent paper [Phys. Rev. E 95, 042304 (2017)]. The IMV model generates a strong hysteresis behavior as the noise intensity…
In this paper, we study the phase transition behavior emerging from the interactions among multiple agents in the presence of noise. We propose a simple discrete-time model in which a group of non-mobile agents form either a fixed connected…

We generalize the original majority-vote (MV) model from two states to arbitrary $p$ states and study the order-disorder phase transitions in such a $p$-state MV model on complex networks. By extensive Monte Carlo simulations and a…
In this work we study a 3-state ($+1$, $-1$, $0$) opinion model in the presence of noise and disorder. We consider pairwise competitive interactions, with a fraction $p$ of those interactions being negative (disorder). Moreover, there is a…
