Description

Motivated by challenges in social and opinion dynamics, we will consider large systems of SDEs, modelling the dynamics of interacting entities. We aim at describing and quantifying phenomena of fast attraction to certain clusters followed by slow leakage due to diffusion, making use of sub-Markovian semigroups, quasistationary distributions and associated spectral methods.
