Social media are becoming increasingly important in our society and change the way people communicate, how they acquire information, and how they form beliefs. Experts are concerned that the rise of social media may make interaction and information exchange among like-minded individuals more...

In this paper we study the number of pure strategy Nash equilibria in large finite n-player games. A distinguishing feature of our study is that we allow general - potentially multivalued - best reply correspondences. Given the number K of pure strategies to each player, we assign to each player...

We present a model for the dynamics of networks in which edges represent positions in organizations, holders of which … is capable of explaining how such networks are formed. It is observed that distances from firms to candidates and the …

We investigate the cases when the Bonacich measures of strongly connected directed bipartite networks can be … utilitity functions, where the matrices representing the network have dimension m × n. For connected directed bipartite networks … Bonacich measures of such networks can be interpreted as a subgame perfect equilibrium path of an extensive form game with …

An undirected connected bimodal network has two Bonacich measures quantifying the centrality of the nodes. We show that the product of Bonacich measures of an undirected bimodal network may be viewed as a product measure that is nearest (w.r.t. Euclidean norm) to the matrix representing the...

This paper studies Finnish firms and especially it's boardroom network and the effects that it has on financial actions. Compared with earlier studies, this study also takes into consideration both firms that are not connected and uses them as a natural comparison, as well as principal component...

We study axiomatically recursive clustering methods for networks. Such methods can be used to identify community …

In this paper, we focus on the interconnectedness of banks and the price they pay for liquidity. We assess how the concentration of credit relationships and the position of a bank in the network topology of the system influence the bank’s ability to meet its liquidity demand. We use quarterly...

Occasionally binding constraints (OBCs) like the zero lower bound (ZLB) can lead to multiple equilibria, and so to belief-driven recessions. To aid in finding policies that avoid this, we derive existence and uniqueness conditions for otherwise linear models with OBCs. Our main result gives...
