Nonlinear Dynamics and Pattern Formation

Multibody interactions in models for consensus dynamics can reveal higher-order effects that are not captured by two-body models. The three-body consensus models studied in this work show dynamics that can lead to a shift of the average state of the system. This work also demonstrates that nonlinear interactions are necessary for a multibody dynamical system not to be reducible to a two-body system.
