Dynamics of an Information Spreading Model with Isolation

Abstract EN

Information plays an important role in modern society.

In this paper, we presented a mathematicalmodel of information spreading with isolation.

It was found that such a model has richdynamics including Hopf bifurcation.

The results showed that, for a wide range of parameters,there is a bistable phenomenon in the process of information spreading and thus the information cannot be well controlled.

Moreover, the model has a limit cycle which implies that the informationexhibits periodic outbreak which is consistent with the observations in the real world.
