Collective Phenomena in Complex Social Systems — •González-avella Juan Carlos, Vazquez Federico, Eguíluz Victor, and San Miguel Maxi — Instituto de Física Interdisciplinar y Sistemas Complejos (IFISC-CSIC), Palma de Mallorca, Spain

The problem of social consensus is approached from the perspective of nonlinear dynamics of interacting agents in a complex network. Some basic concepts, such as dynamical metastability, are discussed in the framework of the prototype voter model. In the context of Axelrod's model for the dissemination of culture we describe a co-evolutionary dynamics formulation with recent results on group formation and nonequilibrium network fragmentation and recombination transitions.
