We introduce an agent-based model for co-evolving opinion and social dynamics, under the influence of multiplicative noise. In this model, every agent is characterized by a position in a social space and a continuous opinion state variable.…

In a recent experimental paper [1] a qualitative confirmation of the existence of upstream neutral modes at $\nu = 2/3$ quantum Hall edge was reported. Using the chiral Luttinger liquid theory of quantum Hall edge we develop a quantitative…

A variety of problems in random-effects meta-analysis arise from the conventional $Q$ statistic, which uses estimated inverse-variance (IV) weights. In previous work on standardized mean difference and log-odds-ratio, we found superior…

The existence of juxtaposed regions of distinct cultures in spite of the fact that people's beliefs have a tendency to become more similar to each other's as the individuals interact repeatedly is a puzzling phenomenon in the social…

(Abridged) Many-multiplet (MM) method applied to three inhomogeneous samples of Keck/HIRES quasar absorption spectra gives a shift in the value of the fine-structure constant of Delta alpha/alpha = (-5.4+/-1.2) 10^{-6} in the redshift range…

We have simulated the three-dimensional Heisenberg model on simple cubic lattices, using the single-cluster Monte Carlo update algorithm. The expected pronounced reduction of critical slowing down at the phase transition is verified. This…

We prove a moment majorization principle for matrix-valued functions with domain $\{-1,1\}^{m}$, $m\in\mathbb{N}$. The principle is an inequality between higher-order moments of a non-commutative multilinear polynomial with different random…

While the Ising model belongs to the realm of equilibrium statistical mechanics, the voter model is an example of a nonequilibrium system. We examine an opinion formation model, which is a mixture of Ising and voter agents with…

We investigate the short-time universal behavior of the two dimensional Ashkin-Teller model at the Baxter line by performing time-dependent Monte Carlo Simulations. First, as preparatory results, we obtain the critical parameters by…

We present a full stochastic description of the pair approximation scheme to study binary-state dynamics on heterogeneous networks. Within this general approach, we obtain a set of equations for the dynamical correlations, fluctuations and…

Reaching consensus on massive discussion networks is critical for reducing noise and achieving optimal collective outcomes. However, the natural tendency of humans to preserve their initial ideas constrains the emergence of global…

Using a cluster-flipping Monte Carlo algorithm combined with a generalization of the histogram reweighting scheme of Ferrenberg and Swendsen, we have studied the equilibrium properties of the thermal random-field Ising model on a cubic…

We consider the problem of modeling heterogeneous materials where micro-scale dynamics and interactions affect global behavior. In the presence of heterogeneities in material microstructure it is often impractical, if not impossible, to…

We describe the results of a systematic high-statistics Monte-Carlo study of finite-size effects at the phase transition of compact U(1) lattice gauge theory with Wilson action on a hypercubic lattice with periodic boundary conditions. We…

Importance Sampling (IS), an effective variance reduction strategy in Monte Carlo (MC) simulation, is frequently utilized for Bayesian inference and other statistical challenges. Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) replaces the random samples in MC…

We study the bidimensional voter model on a square lattice with numerical simulations. We demonstrate that the evolution takes place in two distinct dynamic regimes; a first approach towards critical site percolation and a further approach…

Employing the projective formalism of determinant quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC) simulations, we meticulously explore the ground-state phase diagram and critical behavior of the half-filled Hubbard model on a square-hexagon-octagon (SHO)…

Classical spatial models of two-party competition typically predict convergence to the median voter, yet real-world party systems often exhibit persistent and asymmetric polarization. We develop a spatial model of two-party competition in…

The voter model has been studied extensively as a paradigmatic opinion dynamics' model. However, its ability for modeling real opinion dynamics has not been addressed. We introduce a noisy voter model (accounting for social influence) with…

This work shows an approach to achieve output consensus among heterogeneous agents in a multi-agent environment where each agent is subject to input constraints. The communication among agents is described by a time-varying…
