Levikule is a term used in speculative and academic discussions to describe a hypothetical diffusion mechanism in social networks. It denotes a broad class of models in which agents act on simple local information and rules, yet the aggregate behavior produces large-scale spreading of ideas, behaviors, or resources. The term does not have a single standardized definition and appears in various thought experiments and early-stage research discussions.
Core concepts of levikule models center on decentralized decision making. Agents typically base their choices on
Origins and usage of the term are diverse, spanning theoretical explorations in network science as well as
