We study from both a theoretical and an empirical perspective how a network of military alliances and enmities affects … the intensity of a conflict. The model combines elements from network theory and from the politico-economic theory of … characterization of the Nash equilibrium of the fighting game, and of how the network structure affects individual and total fighting …

We consider a network game with strategic complementarities where the individual reward or the strength of interactions … disentangling the information effects from the network effects and show that the equilibrium effort of each agent is a weighted … the weights are its eigenvectors. We then study the impact of incomplete information on a network policy which aim is to …

We provide an overview on networks in economics. We first look at the theoretical aspects of network economics using a … game-theoretical approach. We derive some results on games on networks and network formation. We also study what happens …

We provide an overview and synthesis of the literatures analyzing games where players are connected via a network … structure. We study, in particular, the impact of the structure of the network on individuals’ behaviors. We focus on the game …

network formation. While the physics/applied mathematics approach is capable of reproducing most observed networks, it does …

This paper analyzes the effects of network positions and individual risk attitudes on individuals' strategic decisions … factors. We study subjects' strategic investment decisions in four basic network structures. As predicted, we find that global … factors, such as the regularity of the network structure, influence behavior. However, we also find evidence that individual …
