Abstract

We analyze the SCARDO model in the case of the 3-element opinion space under specific constraints on the transition table parameters that allows to link the problem at stake to the case of the 2-element opinion space that has been thoroughly studied previously. We characterize the properties of fixed points and support our findings by numerical experiments. Further, we manage to find out those settings that ensure the system almost surely reaches a specific domain in the phase space, after which its behavior can be predicted analytically.
