In the evolving voter model, when an individual interacts with a neighbor having an opinion different from theirs, they will with probability $1-\alpha$ imitate the neighbor but with probability $ \alpha$ will sever the connection and…

The voter model is a classical interacting particle system, modelling how global consensus is formed by local imitation. We analyse the time to consensus for a particular family of voter models when the underlying structure is a scale-free…

Different models are proposed to understand magnetic phase transitions through the prism of competition between the energy and the entropy. One of such models is a $q$-state Potts model with invisible states. This model introduces $r$…

For a multi-agent system state estimation resting upon noisy measurements constitutes a problem related to several application scenarios. Adopting the standard least-squares approach, in this work we derive both the (centralized) analytic…

We study the critical behavior of the q-state Potts model with random ferromagnetic couplings. Working with the cluster representation the partition sum of the model in the large-q limit is dominated by a single graph, the fractal…

We introduce the threshold $q$-voter opinion dynamics where an agent, facing a binary choice, can change its mind when at least $q_0$ amongst $q$ neighbors share the opposite opinion. Otherwise, the agent can still change its mind with a…

The approximate master equation (AME) provides a highly accurate description of dynamical processes on networks, yet its steady states are generally analytically intractable. In this study, we develop an analytical framework to derive the…

We study a variant of the voter model on a coevolving network in which interactions of two individuals with differing opinions only lead to an agreement on one of these opinions with a fixed probability $q$. Otherwise, with probability…

We propose a random bipartite graph with weights assigned to both parts of the vertex sets. Edges are formed independently with probabilities that depend on these weights. This bipartite graph naturally gives rise to a random intersection…

We derive a master equation describing the evolution of a quantum system subjected to a sequence of observations. These measurements occur randomly at a given rate and can be of a very general form. As an example, we analyse the effects of…

Motivated by the empirical study that identifies a correlation between particular social responses and different interaction ranges, we study the $q$-voter model with various combinations of local and global sources of conformity and…

Understanding the emergent macroscopic behavior of dynamical systems on networks is a crucial but challenging task. One of the simplest and most effective methods to construct a reduced macroscopic model is given by mean-field theory. The…

We consider the process of reaching the final state in the coevolving voter model. There is a coevolution of state dynamics, where a node can copy a state from a random neighbor with probabilty $1-p$ and link dynamics, where a node can…
