| Abstract | The Deffuant-Weisbuch (DW) model is a bounded-confidence opinion dynamics model that has attracted much recent interest. Despite its simplicity and appeal, the DW model has proved technically hard to analyze and its most basic convergence properties, easy to observe numerically, are only conjectures. This paper solves the convergence problem for the heterogeneous DW model with the weighting factor not less than 1/2. We establish that, for any positive confidence bounds and initial values, the opinion of each agent will converge to a limit value almost surely, and the convergence rate is exponential in mean square. Moreover, we show that the limiting opinions of any two agents either are the same or have a distance larger than the confidence bounds of the two agents. Finally, we provide some sufficient conditions for the heterogeneous DW model to reach consensus. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. |
