Phase transitions, KMS-condition and Decision Making
Abstract
We consider a simple model of interacting agents asked to choose between "yes" and "not" to some given question. The agents are described in terms of spin variables, and they interact according to a mean field Heisenberg model. We discuss under which conditions the agents can come out with a common choice. This is made using, in a social context, the notion of KMS-states and phase transitions.
