We investigate the cases when the Bonacich measures of strongly connected directed bipartite networks can be … utilitity functions, where the matrices representing the network have dimension m × n. For connected directed bipartite networks … Bonacich measures of such networks can be interpreted as a subgame perfect equilibrium path of an extensive form game with …

An undirected connected bimodal network has two Bonacich measures quantifying the centrality of the nodes. We show that the product of Bonacich measures of an undirected bimodal network may be viewed as a product measure that is nearest (w.r.t. Euclidean norm) to the matrix representing the...
