Local and Consistent Centrality Measures in Networks
Zenou, Yves; Dequiedt, Vianney - Nationalekonomiska institutionen, Stockholms Universitet - 2014
The centrality of an agent in a network has been shown to be crucial in explaining different behaviors and outcomes. In this paper, we propose an axiomatic approach to characterize a class of centrality measures for which the centrality of an agent is recursively related to the centralities of...

Price Competition in Product Variety Networks
Ushchev, Philip; Zenou, Yves - 2016
We develop a product-differentiated model where the product space is a network defined as a set of varieties (nodes) linked by their degrees of substitutability (edges). We also locate consumers into this network, so that the location of each consumer (node) corresponds to her “ideal”...

Conformism, Social Norms and the Dynamics of Assimilation
Olcina, Gonzalo; Panebianco, Fabrizio; Zenou, Yves - 2018
We consider a model where each individual (or ethnic minority) is embedded in a network of relationships and decides whether or not she wants to be assimilated to the majority norm. Each individual wants her behavior to agree with her personal ideal action or norm but also wants her behavior to...
