DYNAMICAL EMERGENCE OF CONTRARIANS IN A 2D LOTKA-VOLTERRA LIKE LATTICE

摘要: We analyze a Lotka-Volterra-like social lattice of agents interacting among themselves in collaborative or competitive scenarios. Dynamic characteristics the model are derived, equilibrium points system found. For nearest neighbor interaction structure case, which depends on γ1 parameter, also bifurcations explored allowing us to understand how different levels collaboration competition leads configurations. found that, within range -α/4 α/4, tend polarized opinions and contrarians appear naturally. Higher structures have been simulated, for contrarian patterns emerge dynamically. In all cases initial conditions randomly taken. Hung conflictive scenarios discussed.
