Given a transition matrix $P$ indexed by a finite set $V$ of vertices, the voter model is a discrete-time Markov chain in $\{0,1\}^V$ where at each time-step a randomly chosen vertex $x$ imitates the opinion of vertex $y$ with probability…
The symmetric exclusion process and the voter model are two interacting particle systems for which a dual finite particle system allows one to characterize its invariant measures. Adding spontaneous births and deaths to the two processes…
The voter model is a classical interacting particle system modelling how consensus is formed across a network. We analyse the time to consensus for the voter model when the underlying graph is a subcritical scale-free random graph.…
We observe the outcome of the discrete time noisy voter model at a single vertex of a graph. We show that certain pairs of graphs can be distinguished by the frequency of repetitions in the sequence of observations. We prove that this…
We study the noisy voter model using a specific non-linear dependence of the rates that takes into account collective interaction between individuals. The resulting model is solved exactly under the all-to-all coupling configuration and…
Given a continuous time Markov Chain $\{q(x,y)\}$ on a finite set $S$, the associated noisy voter model is the continuous time Markov chain on $\{0,1\}^S$, which evolves in the following way: (1) for each two sites $x$ and $y$ in $S$, the…
We study the stationary states of variants of the noisy voter model, subject to fluctuating parameters or external environments. Specifically, we consider scenarios in which the herding-to-noise ratio switches randomly and on different time…
We study noise sensitivity of the consensus opinion of the voter model on finite graphs, with respect to noise affecting the initial opinions and noise affecting the dynamics. We prove that the final opinion is stable with respect to small…
We give a comprehensive mean-field analysis of the Partisan Voter Model (PVM) and report analytical results for exit probabilities, fixation times, and the quasi-stationary distribution. In addition, and similarly to the noisy voter model,…
We introduce and study the block voter model with noise on two-dimensional square lattices using Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling techniques. The model is defined by an outflow dynamics where a central set of $N_{PCS}$ spins,…
We investigate the convergence towards equilibrium of the noisy voter model, evolving in the complete graph with n vertices. The noisy voter model is a version of the voter model, on which individuals change their opinions randomly due to…
We study the noisy voter model with $q\geq 2$ states and noise probability $\theta$ on arbitrary bounded-degree $n$-vertex graphs $G$ with subexponential growth of balls (e.g., finite subsets of $\mathbb{Z}^d$). Cox, Peres and Steif (2016)…
We study a system of spins (qubits) coupled to a common noisy environment, each precessing at its own frequency. The correlated noise experienced by the spins implies long-lived correlations that relax only due to the differing frequencies.…
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…
In the voter model, each node of a graph has an opinion, and in every round each node chooses independently a random neighbour and adopts its opinion. We are interested in the consensus time, which is the first point in time where all nodes…
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…
For the voter model, we study the effect of a memory-dependent transition rate. We assume that the transition of a spin into the opposite state decreases with the time it has been in its current state. Counter-intuitively, we find that the…
The voter model with multiple states has found applications in areas as diverse as population genetics, opinion formation, species competition and language dynamics, among others. In a single step of the dynamics, an individual chosen at…
The voter model is a classical interacting particle system explaining consensus formation on a social network. Real social networks feature not only a heterogeneous degree distribution but also connections changing over time. We study the…
We investigate the effect of noise strength on the macroscopic ordering dynamics of systems with symmetric absorbing states. Using an explicit stochastic microscopic model, we present evidence for a phase transition in the coarsening…
