In order to do so, four definitions are proposed and serve as the ground of the subsequent treatment. The results start off with a brief study of the general behavior of the model, as well as of the influence that both initial conditions and the convergence parameter μ exert upon it. After this, a comparison of the original model with two proposed variations of it is carried out, providing further insight into the mechanisms behind the phenomena of interest. Finally, a probabilistic study based on a simplified model of these mechanisms is introduced.5 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd (c) Veefkind, 2023http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/SociofísicaFísica estadísticaTreballs de fi de grauSocial physicsStatistical physicsBachelor's thesesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
