Figure 1

An example of a suitability landscape in form of the double well potential \(V(x,y)=(x^{2}-1)^{2}+y^{2}\) is shown here. The heat map colours, ranging from dark blue to yellow, indicate low to high values of the landscape. This landscape is characterized by two attractive areas that are centered at the two local minima and a barrier between them. We consider \(n=35\) agents and the interaction radius \(r=1\). Adopters of the innovation are represented by red dots, whereas non-adopters are shown as yellow dots
