Abstract:
The first part gives the review of conformal behavior studies by various sciences – philosophy, culturology, theoretical, practical, and social psychology. Attempt of classification of mathematical models of conformal behavior as a special case of social interactions models is carried out. Schelling and Granovetter models which gave rise to other mathematical models are considered in details.
Keywords:conformal behavior, social interaction, model of critical mass, threshold model of social interaction, social-physics model, crowd control.
