On the coexistence of competing memes in the same social network

Abstract

We present a model of double viral spreading on a multi-network suitable for modeling the diffusion of competitive memes. The main characteristics of the model is that it allows the possibility of changing from one opinion to another without having to go through an agnostic (susceptible) phase.
