Abstract

The Biswas-Chatterjee-Sen (BChS) model of opinion dynamics has been studied on three-dimensional Solomon networks by means of extensive Monte Carlo simulations. Finite-size scaling relations for different lattice sizes have been used in order to obtain the relevant quantities of the system in the thermodynamic limit. From the simulation data it is clear that the BChS model undergoes a second-order phase transition. At the transition point, the critical exponents describing the behavior of the order parameter, the corresponding order parameter susceptibility, and the correlation length, have been evaluated. From the values obtained for these critical exponents one can confidently conclude that the BChS model in three dimensions is in a different universality class to the respective model defined on one- and two-dimensional Solomon networks, as well as in a different universality class as the usual Ising model on the same networks.
