The intuition … behind this result is that networks with larger maximum independent sets are more sparse and hence offer fewer opportunities … show that the ranking of networks by the extent of extremal inequality is not invariant in k …

Dynamic Competition on Social Networks
Mandel, Antoine - 2017
We provide an analytical approach to the problem of influence maximization in a social network when two players compete by means of dynamic targeting strategies. We formulate the problem as a two-player zero-sum stochastic game. We prove the existence of the uniform value: if the players are...

Probabilistic Network Values
Borkotokey, Surajit; Gogoi, Loyimee - 2020
We consider a class of cooperative network games with transferable utilities in which players interact through a probabilistic network rather than a regular, deterministic network. In this class of wealth-generating situations we consider probabilistic extensions of the Myerson value and the...

Matching in Networks with Bilateral Contracts
Hatfield, John William - 2010
We introduce a model in which firms trade goods via bilateral contracts which specify a buyer, a seller, and the terms of the exchange. This setting subsumes (many-to-many) matching with contracts, as well as supply chain matching. When firms' relationships do not exhibit a supply chain...

Optimal risk-sharing across a network of insurance companies
Ettlin, Nicolas; Farkas, Walter; Kull, Andreas; … - 2020
Risk transfer is a key risk and capital management tool for insurance companies. Transferring risk between insurers is used to mitigate risk and manage capital re- quirements. We investigate risk transfer in the context of a network environment of insurers and consider capital costs and capital...

Networks Formation to Assist Decision Making
Goldbaum, David - 2016
This paper examines network formation among a connected population with a preference for conformity and leadership. Agents build stable personal relationships to achieve coordinated actions. The network serves as a repository of collective experiences so that cooperation can emerge from simple,...
