We present a multi-country theory of economic growth in which countries are connected by a network of mutual knowledge … industrial revolution, followed by decreasing relative inequality. Knowledge diffusion through a Small World network explains the … knowledge throughout the world explains a period of increasing world inequality after the take-off of the forerunners of the …

We explore network effects on generosity for different network dimensions. To this end we elicit multiple network … generosity with a sequence of dictator games conducted in the field. We find that networks of different dimensions differ … substantially in density, clustering, and centrality. When relating generosity to networks we observe that social distance only …

Maintaining the security of critical infrastructure networks is vital for a modern economy. This paper examines a game …-theoretic model of attack and defense of a network in which the defender's objective is to maintain network connectivity and the … attacker's objective is to destroy a set of nodes that disconnects the network. The conflict at each node is modeled as a …

review is on studies that use network analysis paying special attention to those that apply complex analysis techniques …

This paper studies the formation of self-enforcing global environmental agreements in a world economy with …

We study the formation of networks in environments where agents derive benefits from other agents directly linked to … networks with undirected links (e.g. epidemics, underground resistance organizations, trade networks) where we find that stable … networks are comprised of completely connected disjoint subnetworks. Then, we consider networks with directed links and we find …

linked fields. Our analysis uses 1.8 million U.S. patents and their citation properties to map the innovation network and its … strength. Past innovation network structures are calculated using citation patterns across technology classes during 1975 …-1994. The interaction of this pre-existing network structure with patent growth in upstream technology fields has strong …

We present a network model of the interbank market in which optimizing risk averse banks lend to each other and invest … sale externalities. The resulting network configurations exhibits a core-periphery structure, dis-assortative behavior and … low clustering coefficient. We measure systemic importance by means of network centrality and input-output metrics and the …
