This paper presents a model of local network effects in which agents connected by a social network each value the …-Nash equilibria of this network game are in monotone strategies, can be strictly Pareto-ranked based on a scalar neighbor … which the social network is an instance of a Poisson random graph, when it is a complete graph, a standard model of network …

We study a strategic model of community formation on networks. Starting from a seed community member, the process of community formation is sequential, with infinitely-patient and forward-looking agents making strategic offers to their neighbors. Each agent makes an irreversible binary choice,...

This paper proposes a non-cooperative game of network formation where players' decisions in link formation stem from … benefits from the links he forms to the extent that they connect people across the network. I find that strict Nash …

We examine how trade sanctions can be imposed effectively in a trading network. We focus on three factors that affect … trade sanctions: a country’s endowment, distance between trading countries, and connectivity in the network. Our models …) incorporating the consequences of different centralities of sender and target in the trade network …

A local public-good game played on directed networks is analyzed. The model is motivated by one-way flows of hydrological influence between cities of a river basin that may shape the level of their contribution to the conservation of wetlands. It is shown that in many (but not all) directed...

This paper develops a framework for analyzing the effect of arbitrary changes to network structure in linear …-quadratic games on networks. Changes to network structure which increase total activity and total utility are studied for the case of … centrality which counts the total length of walks from a node.Two optimal network design problems are then considered. Total …
