We introduce a non-linear variant of the voter model, the q-voter model, in which q neighbors (with possible repetition) are consulted for a voter to change opinion. If the q neighbors agree, the voter takes their opinion; if they do not…

We investigate opinion dynamics in multi-agent networks when a bias toward one of two possible opinions exists; for example, reflecting a status quo vs a superior alternative. Starting with all agents sharing an initial opinion representing…

Evolution occurs in populations of reproducing individuals. The structure of a biological population affects which traits evolve. Understanding evolutionary game dynamics in structured populations is difficult. Precise results have been…

Recent studies have demonstrated that network approaches are highly appropriate tools to understand the extreme complexity of the aging process. The generality of the network concept helps to define and study the aging of technological,…

We argue that the stochastic dynamics of interacting agents which replicate, mutate and die constitutes a non-equilibrium physical process akin to aging in complex materials. Specifically, our study uses extensive computer simulations of…

In social networking services, users constantly change, and the network structure changes simultaneously. As the network structure changes, so does the word-of-mouth within it. To study how information transfer on the network changes with…

A multiphasic constitutive model of the skin that implicitly accounts for the process of intrinsic (i.e.\ chronological) ageing via variation of the constitutive parameters is proposed. The structurally-motivated constitutive formulation…

We study collective helping behavior and bystander effects in a coevolving helping network model. A node and a link of the network represents an agent who renders or receives help and a friendly relation between agents, respectively. A…

We consider two-opinion voter models on dense dynamic random graphs. Our goal is to understand and describe the occurrence of consensus versus polarisation over long periods of time. The former means that all vertices have the same opinion,…

We study how the volatility, node- or link-based, affects the evolution of social networks in simple models. The model describes the competition between order -- promoted by the efforts of agents to coordinate -- and disorder induced by…

The effect of power-law aging on a contact process is studied by simulation and using a mean-field approach. We find that the system may approach its stationary state in a nontrivial, nonmonotonous way. For the particular value of the aging…

Oscillators are often employed as a model of radiation fields, which may couple to an atom and play an important role for creating and manipulating nonclassical states in quantum metrology, quantum simulation, and quantum information. Aging…

Non-linear voter models assume that the opinion of an agent depends on the opinions of its neighbors in a non-linear manner. This allows for voting rules different from majority voting. While the linear voter model is known to reach…

In this paper, we propose a new model for continuous time opinion dynamics on an evolving network. As opposed to existing models, in which the network typically evolves by discretely adding or removing edges, we instead propose a model for…
