Applications of small-world networks to some socio-economic systems

Small-world networks (SWN) are found to be closer to the real social systems than both regular and random lattices. Then, a model for the evolution of economic systems is generalized to SWN. The Sznajd model for the two-state opinion formation problem is applied to SWN. Then a simple de,nition of leaders is included. These models explain some socio-economic aspects. c © 2003 Elsevier Science B....
