belonging to their selected club. A sequential two-stage approach is used to separate network formation decisions and public … goods decisions and apply farsighted stability to characterize the network structures that emerge and persist as a result of … this sequence of stages. Criteria are established based on the player size and network parameters for determining the …

This study investigates how people provide public goods in a network formation game. In this game, players first form a … network through bilateral linking, with or without a link cost, and then contribute to a public good, which can benefit both …

This paper analyzes the private provision of public goods where consumers interact within a fixed network structure and …

In this paper, we show that a concept of aggregation can hold in network games. Breaking up large networks into smaller … provide an application to public goods in networks to show the usefulness of our results. In particular, we highlight network … architectures that cannot prevent free-riding in public good network games. Finally, we show that aggregation enhances the stability …

In this paper, we show that a concept of aggregation can hold in large network games with linear best replies. Breaking … compute all Nash equilibria for the special network structure of cograph. A key finding is that a stable Nash equilibrium of … the large network game can be decomposed into a collection of Nash equilibria of subnetwork games. Thereby, we establish a …
