Abstract
We review in details some recently proposed kinetic models of opinion dynamics. We discuss several variants including a generalised model. We provide mean field estimates for the critical points, which are numerically supported with reasonable accuracy. Using non-equilibrium relaxation techniques, we also investigate the nature of phase transitions observed in these models. We also study the nature of correlations as the critical points are approached.
