Phase transition in Nowak-Sznajd opinion dynamics
Maciej Woloszyn, Dietrich Stauffer, Krzysztof Kulakowski
Abstract
The Nowak modification of the Sznajd opinion dynamics model on the square lattice assumes that with probabilities beta and gamma the opinions flip due to mass-media advertising from down to up, and vice versa. Besides, with probability alpha the Sznajd rule applies that a neighbour pair agreeing in its two opinions convinces all its six neighbours of that opinion. Our Monte Carlo simulations and mean-field theory find sharp phase transitions in the parameter space.
