agents form a core-periphery network, with core members acting as conduits of information on behalf of their stakeholders …, effectively intermediating all transmissions of information within the network. …

We introduce a simple two-stage game of endogenous network formation and information sharing for reasoning about the … then we study how the network design and the utility specifications affect welfare. Surprisingly, we find that in general … "babblers" or "friends", irrespective of whether the network is unilateral or bilateral, in equilibrium, targeted information …

The paper proposes a game of weighted network formation in which each agent has a limited resource to form links of …, uniquely predicts the equilibrium values of each agent's network investment and utility level, as well as the ratio of any two …

We select the minimal case of a bipartite network where we have two groups of nodes … extreme Thouless effect in this model, i.e. a mixed-phase transition at which the order parameter, here given by the network …

This paper studies a noncooperative model of network formation. Built upon the two-way flow model of Bala and Goyal …

Most literature in strategic network formation shows that there is a substantial tension between stability and … efficiency. In this note, I show that such is not the case in the twoway flow model with small decay studied by Bala and Goyal … (2000a) and De Jaegher and Kamphorst (2015). Specifically, I show that every link receiver in a Nash network serves as an …
