Binary Opinion Dynamics with Stubborn Agents
TL;DR: It is shown that the presence of stubborn agents with opposing opinions precludes convergence to consensus; instead, opinions converge in distribution with disagreement and fluctuations.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Diffusion of innovations in social networks
TL;DR: This paper focuses on the linear threshold model where each individual requires exposure to (potentially) multiple sources of adoption in her neighborhood before adopting the innovation herself, and bounds suggest that innovations might spread further across networks with a smaller degree of clusters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Competitive Targeted Advertising Over Networks
TL;DR: A game-theoretic model of competition between firms that can target their marketing budgets to individuals embedded in a social network is examined and it is found that at equilibrium firms invest inefficiently high in targeted advertising and the extent of the inefficiency is increasing in the centralities of the agents they target.
