In the nonlinear voter model, evolutionary games, and the partisan voter model, one-sided zealotry enforces consensus in infinite populations only if the social impact function grows at least linearly (q>=1); sublinear impact keeps consensus unstable.
(33) For α > 1/2 this condition is always fulfilled (for all z) as (1 − α)/α is then smaller than one

Breaking coexistence: Zealotry vs. nonlinear social impact
In the nonlinear voter model, evolutionary games, and the partisan voter model, one-sided zealotry enforces consensus in infinite populations only if the social impact function grows at least linearly (q>=1); sublinear impact keeps consensus unstable.
