1 The Dynamics of Consensus and Clash Annual CNLS Conference 2006 Question: How do generic opinion dynamics models with (quasi)-ferromagnetic interactions evolve? Models: Voter model on heterogeneous graphs Bounded compromise Axelrod model of cultural diversity V. Sood E. Ben-Naim & P. Krapivsky F. Vazquez Results: Heterogeneous voter model: fast consensus Bounded compromise: self-similar fragmentation Axelrod model: non-monotonicity and long time scale
2 Voter Model Liggett (1985) 0. Binary spin variable at each site i,! =±1 1. Pick a random spin 2. Assume state of randomly-selected neighbor each individual has zero self-confidence and adopts state of randomly-chosen neighbor 3. Repeat 1 & 2 until consensus necessarily occurs i Example update step: 3/4 1/4 encoded by flip rate w ( {σ} i {σ} i ) = 1 2 ( 1 σ i z ) σ k k nn i
3 1. Final State (Exit) Probabilities E ± (ρ 0 ) = ρ 0 Equation of Motion for single spin: mean spin s i = σ i : ds i dt = 2 σ iw i = s i + 1 z k nn i s k ṁ i ṡ i = 0 ρ 0 1 ρ 0 ρ 0 0 1
4 2. Spatial Dependence of 2-Spin Correlations Equation for 2-spin correlation function: d(s i s j ) dt Asymptotic solution: c(r,t) c(r, t) = 2 σ i σ j (w i + w j ) c 2(r, t) t 1 1 ( a r )d 2 1 ( a Dt ) d 2 d 2 1 ln r ln a 1 ln Dt ln a d = 2 d>2 d<2 c(r,t) (infinite system) = 2 c 2 (r, t) c(r =0, t) = 0; c(r, t=0) = δ(r) 1 (a/r) d 2 Dt later time r r early time
5 3. System Size Dependence of Consensus Time Liggett (1985), Krapivsky (1992) Dt c(r, t)r d 1 dr = N dimension consensus time 1 N 2 2 N ln N >2 N
6 Voter Model on Heterogeneous Graphs illustrative example: complete bipartite graph pick site on a sublattice pick! on a Castellano et al (2003) Suchecki et al (2004) Sood & SR (2005) pick "on b sublattice a sites degree b b sites degree a dn a = dn b = a [ a Na a + b a b [ b Nb a + b b N b b N a a N a a N b b b N b b a N a a ] ] Subgraph densities: ρ a = N a /a, ρ b = N b /b dt = 1/(a + b) ρ a,b (t) = 1 2 [ρ a,b(0) ρ b,a (0)] e 2t [ρ a(0) + ρ b (0)] Exit probabilities: 1 2 [ρ a(0) + ρ b (0)] N.B.: magnetization is not conserved E + = 1 E = 1 2 [ρ a(0) + ρ b (0)].
7 Exit probabilities E + = 1 E = 1 2 [ρ a(0) + ρ b (0)] Extreme case: star graph Initial state: 1 plus, N minus + Final state: all + probability 1/2!
8 Route to Consensus trajectory of a single realization t < c = ! b! b c = ! a ! a complete bipartite graph two-clique graph a sites degree b b sites degree a c K K 10000
9 Mean Consensus Time pick site on the a sublattice pick! on a pick "on b sublattice consensus time from new state continuum limit: T (ρ a, ρ b ) = a a + b (1 ρ a)ρ b [T (ρ a + 1 a, ρ b) + δt] + a a + b ρ a(1 ρ b )[T (ρ a 1 a, ρ b) + δt] + b a + b (1 ρ b)ρ a [T (ρ a, ρ b + 1 b ) + δt] + b a + b ρ b(1 ρ a )[T (ρ a, ρ b 1 b ) + δt] + (1 ρ a ρ b +2ρ a ρ b )[T (ρ a, ρ b ) + δt], Nδt = (ρ a ρ b )( a b )T N (ρ a, ρ b ) 1 ( 1 2 (ρ a + ρ b 2ρ a ρ b ) a 2 a + 1 ) b 2 b T N (ρ a, ρ b )
10 assuming ρ a = ρ b and ρ = (ρ a + ρ b )/2: equation of motion for T becomes: ( 1 1 ρ(1 ρ) 4 a + 1 ) 2 T = 1 b with solution: T ab (ρ) = 4ab a + b [(1 ρ) ln(1 ρ) + ρ ln ρ)] implications: a = O(1), b = O(N) (star graph), T = O(1) a = O(N), b = O(N) (symmetric graph), T = O(N)
11 Power-Law Degree Distribution Network n j = fraction of nodes with degree j µ m = j jm n j = m th moment of degree distribution ω = 1 µ 1 j jn jρ j = degree-weighted up spin density Basic result: T N (ω) = N µ2 1 µ 2 [(1 ω) ln(1 ω) + ω ln ω] For power-law network: (n j j ν ) N ν > 3, N/ ln N ν = 3, T N N (2ν 4)/(ν 1) 2 < ν < 3, quick (ln N) 2 ν = 2, O(1) ν < 2. ]consensus!
12 Bounded Compromise Model Deffuant et al (2000) 1 1 x 1 x 2 x 1 x 2 x 1 + x 2 2 If x 2 x 1 < 1 compromise x 1 x 2 If x 2 x 1 > 1 no interaction
13 The Opinion Distribution Basic observable: P(x,t) = probability that agent has opinion x Fundamental parameter: ", the initial opinion range Master equation: P (x, t) t = x 1 x 2 <1 [ δ ( dx 1 dx 2 P (x 1, t)p (x 2, t) x x 1 + x 2 2 ) δ(x x 1 ) ] "<1: eventual consensus ">1: disjoint parties

26 Outlook & Open Questions 1. Heterogeneous voter model: fast consensus What is the route to consensus? Role of fluctuations? Role of the correlations? Application to real voting? permanence/impermanence 2. Bounded Compromise: fragmentation a natural outcome Is threshold the right mechanism for lack of consensus and fragmentation? 3. Axelrod model: slow non-monotonic dynamics Spatially local interactions? more complex than coarsening Why is the dynamics so slow? Why is there non-monotonicity?
