TLDR
The original, agent based, seceder model is turned into a model of network evolution and it is found that the structural characteristics of the model closely match empirical social networks.
Social Balance in the Triangle-Growing Networks
In this article, we construct a triangle-growing network with tunable clusters and study the social balance dynamics in this network. The built network, which could reflect more features of real…
Interdisciplinary Monte Carlo Simulations
Biological, linguistic, sociological and economical applications of statistical physics are reviewed here. They have been made on a variety of computers over a dozen years, not only at the NIC…
Balance Theory: Progress and Stagnation of a Social Psychological Theory
The development of theories in the social sciences follows an apparently lawlike pattern: at the outset some more or less precise theoretical ideas are advanced. If these elicit the attention of…

Social balance on networks : The dynamics of friendship and enmity
Status and Interaction
Status inequality is a matter both of the distribution of persons to status positions (men and women, highly educated and poorly educated, young and old) and of the value of those positions relative…
Power Relations in Exchange Networks
Many theories address the problem of how a social structure affects the experiences and behaviors of its members. This paper offers a network-exchange theory to solve this problem. Previous research…
