\(\langle k\rangle\)

Average node degree

\(\zeta\)

Normalized second moment of the node degree

\(g_i=g\)

NIA – AIA interaction strength

J

\(\Omega _{i}\)

s-photon energy provided by the i-th AIA

\(\Omega _{0,i}\)

Social energy of the i-th NIA (user) activation

\(\Delta _i=\Omega _{i}-\Omega _{0,i}\)

Social energy detuning that defines how i-th NIA susceptible to information provided by the AIA

\(\sigma _i^+=(\sigma _i^-)^*\)

Complex variable that specify that average emotional activation (excitation) of the i-th user

\(\sigma _i^z\)

\(\sigma _{0,i}^z\)

Steady-state arousal of the i-th NIA

\(\sigma ^{x,y,z}_i\)

Components of the i-th NIA affective vector \(\vec {\sigma }_i = (\sigma ^{x}_i, \sigma ^{y}_i, \sigma ^{z}_i)\) associated with the affective sphere
