We present experiments on repeated non-cooperative network formation games, based on Bala and Goyal (2000). We treat … coordination problems. We conduct experiments under various conditions which control for salient labeling and learning dynamics …. Contrary to previous experiments, we find that coordination on non-empty Strict Nash equilibria is not an easy task for …

As an extension, we consider networks in which each bilateral game is strategically zero-sum, a weighted potential …, which entails a generalization of Robinson's theorem to arbitrary zero-sum networks. Applications include security games …
