We introduce a noncooperative multilateral bargaining model for a network-restricted environment, in which players can … their communication links with upfront transfers. The main theorem characterizes a condition on network structures for … efficient equilibria and shows the prevalence of strategic delays. If the underlying network is either complete or circular …

This paper extends the theory of endogenous coalition formation, with complete information and transferable utility, to the overlapping case. We propose a cover function bargaining game which allows the formation of overlapping coalitions at equilibrium. We show the existence of subgame perfect...

We introduce two pieces of information, denoted memes, into a diffusion process in which memes are transmitted when individuals meet and forgotten at an exogenous rate. At most one meme can be transmitted at a meeting, which introduces opportunity costs in the process. Individuals differ...
