We introduce a new network centrality measure founded on the Gately value for cooperative games with transferable … utilities. A directed network is interpreted as representing control or authority relations between players-constituting a … hierarchical network. The power distribution embedded within a hierarchical network can be represented through appropriate TU …

We study fundamental properties of monotone network enterprises which contain public vertices and have positive and …

Previous allocation rules for network games, such as the Myerson Value, implicitly or explicitly take the network … structure as fixed. In many situations, however, the network structure can be altered by players. This means that the value of … alternative network structures (not just sub-networks) can and should influence the allocation of value among players on any given …

We consider a generalization of the Minimum Cost Spanning Tree (MCST) model dubbed the Minimum Cost Connection Network … (MCCN) model, where network users have connection demands in the form of a pair of target nodes they want connected directly …, or indirectly. Given a network which satisfies all connection demands at minimum cost, the problem consists of allocating …

contextualization of this routing problem and analyze on the one hand how cooperation affects network efficiency, and on the other hand … operation of the network. As in the proposed model cooperation strongly affects routing dynamics of the network, externalities …

We consider a communications network in which users transmit beneficial information to each other at a cost. We …
