Every finite noncooperative game can be presented as a weighted network congestion game, and also as a network … (undirected two-terminal) network provides information about the existence of pure-strategy Nash equilibrium in the game. For some … network has at most three routes that do traverse any edge in opposite directions, or it consists of several such networks …

I look at the equilibrium effects of homophily in network formation games having positive externalities. I show that … very weak preferences for network effects (such as preference for being part of a clique) may result in very high levels of … homophily at equilibrium. I present an empirical procedure that allows an evaluation of the role of network effects on the …
