Optimal convergence in naming game with geography-based negotiation on small-world networksPDF
Physics Letters A 375(3):363--367, 2011
We propose a negotiation strategy to address the effect of geography on the dynamics of naming games over small-world networks. Communication and negotiation frequencies between two agents are determined by their geographical distance in terms of a ...

The naming game model characterizes the main evolutionary features Of languages or more generally of communication systems. Very recently, the combination of complex networks and the naming game has received Much attention and the influences of various topological properties on the corresponding dynamical behavior have been widely studied. In this paper, we investigate the naming game on small-world geographical networks. The small-world geographical networks are constructed by randomly adding links to two-dimensional regular lattices, and it is found that the convergence time is a nonmonotonic function of the geographical distance of randomly added shortcuts. This phenomenon indicates that. although a long geographical distance of the added shortcuts favors consensus achievement, too long a geographical distance of the added shortcuts inhibits the convergence process, making it even slower than the moderates.
