Coauthorship Networks and Research Output
König, Michael D.; Liu, Xiaodong; Zimmermann, Christian - 2015
We study the impact of research collaborations in coauthorship networks on total research output. Through the links in the collaboration network researchers create spillovers not only to their direct coauthors but also to researchers indirectly linked to them. We characterize the interior...
