Digital herders and phase transition in a voting model
In this paper, we discuss a voting model with two candidates, C 1 and C 2. We set two types of voters–herders and independents. The voting of independent voters is based on their fundamental values; on the other hand, the voting of herders is based on the number of votes. Herders always select the majority of the previous r votes, which is visible to them. We call them digital herders. We can a...
متن کاملPhase transition and information cascade in a voting model
We introduce a voting model that is similar to a Keynesian beauty contest. There are two types of voters-copycat and independent-and two candidates. We find that the phase transition in this system is at the upper-limit of t where t is the time (or the number of the votes). If copycats are a majority or number half, the voting rate converges more slowly than in the binomial distribution. If ind...
متن کاملA Phase Transition Model for
As the scale of engineered systems such as electric power grids, communication networks, and the Internet expands and as society’s dependence upon reliable operation of these networks increases, it is vital that system engineers seek a better understanding of how small-scale failures of individual elements may propagate to produce global, system-wide failures. Within this general class of probl...
متن کاملPhase transition in a supersymmetric axion model
In a supersymmetric axion model where the scale for both supersymmetry breaking and Peccei-Quinn symmetry breaking is around 10 GeV, we find that there is a reasonable parameter space for a strongly first order phase transition at the scale.
متن کاملQuantum Phase Transition in a Graphene Model
We present results for the equation of state of a graphene-like model in an effort to understand the properties of its quantum phase transition. The Nf fermion species interact through a three dimensional instantaneous Coulomb potential. Since there are no reliable analytical tools that work for all values of Nf and the coupling constant g , we rely on Monte Carlo simulations to calculate the c...
