#1 Convergence of Opinion Diffusion is PSPACE-Complete [PDF] [Copy] [Kimi]

Authors: Dmitry Chistikov ; Grzegorz Lisowski ; Mike Paterson ; Paolo Turrini

We analyse opinion diffusion in social networks, where a finite set of individuals is connected in a directed graph and each simultaneously changes their opinion to that of the majority of their influencers. We study the algorithmic properties of the fixed-point behaviour of such networks, showing that the problem of establishing whether individuals converge to stable opinions is PSPACE-complete.
