When does opinion formation within an interacting group lead to consensus, polarization or fragmentation? The article investigates various models for the dynamics of continuous opi...
This paper studies the opinion dynamics model recently introduced by Hegselmann and Krause: (1) each agent in a group mantains a real number describing its opinion, (2) each agent ...
We consider the steady state output analysis problem for a process that satisfies a functional central limit theorem. We construct asymptotically valid confidence intervals for th...
Outcomes of this modeling research are the ability to facilitate comparisons of investment alternatives or strategies; regarding primary targets, possible annual revenues, promoti...
While existing mathematical descriptions can accurately account for phenomena at microscopic scales (e.g. molecular dynamics), these are often high-dimensional, stochastic and thei...
