Here we propose a hierarchical swarm model in the spirit of the Vicsek model of self-propelled particles. We show that, as the hierarchy becomes important, the swarming transition changes from the weak first-order transition observed for egalitarian populations, to a stronger first-order transition for intermediately strong hierarchies, and finally the discontinuity reduces until vanish, where the order-disorder transition appears to be absent in the extremely despotic societies. Associated to this we observe that the spatial structure of the swarm, as measured by the correlation between the density and velocity fields, is strongly mediated by the hierarchy. A two-group model and vectorial noise are also studied for verification. Our results point out the particular relevance of the hierarchical structures to swarming transitions when doing specific case studies. 000902578 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-5111$$a5111 - Domain-Specific Simulation & Data Life Cycle Labs (SDLs) and Research Groups (POF4-511)$$cPOF4-511$$fPOF IV$$x0 000902578 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef, Journals: juser.fz-juelich.de 000902578 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aLi, Xu$$b1 000902578 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)136887$$aGrassberger, Peter$$b2 000902578 7001_ $$00000-0002-0335-466X$$aChen, Li$$b3 000902578 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)3004165-X$$a10.1103/PhysRevResearch.2.042017$$gVol. 2, no. 4, p. 042017$$n4$$p042017$$tPhysical review research$$v2$$x2643-1564$$y2020 000902578 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/902578/files/PhysRevResearch.2.042017.pdf$$yOpenAccess 000902578 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:902578$$pdnbdelivery$$pdriver$$pVDB$$popen_access$$popenaire 000902578 9101_ $$0I:(DE-HGF)0$$6P:(DE-HGF)0$$aExternal Institute$$b1$$kExtern 000902578 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)136887$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b2$$kFZJ 000902578 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-511$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF4-510$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF4-500$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF4$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$9G:(DE-HGF)POF4-5111$$aDE-HGF$$bKey Technologies$$lEngineering Digital Futures – Supercomputing, Data Management and Information Security for Knowledge and Action$$vEnabling Computational- & Data-Intensive Science and Engineering$$x0 000902578 9141_ $$y2021 000902578 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0510$$2StatID$$aOpenAccess 000902578 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0300$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bMedline$$d2020-09-04 000902578 915__ $$0LIC:(DE-HGF)CCBY4$$2HGFVOC$$aCreative Commons Attribution CC BY 4.0 000902578 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)JSC-20090406$$kJSC$$lJülich Supercomputing Center$$x0 000902578 9801_ $$aFullTexts 000902578 980__ $$ajournal 000902578 980__ $$aVDB 000902578 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000902578 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)JSC-20090406
