graphs. Many generalizations are proposed and applied. This work explores the impact of graph topology on the outcome of the … threshold protocol game and consequently considers finite graphs. By exploiting the well-known topologies of complete and … complete bipartite graphs, the outcome of the threshold protocol game can be fully characterized on these graphs. These …

Contemporary debates in border studies tend to see the national level as a rather residual category. There are, however, strong arguments that the national level still plays an important role for the governance of border regions. The question is what kind of formats are in place related to...

Abstract The internal organization of large firms as well as procurement and regulation contexts frequently involve a hierarchical nexus of contracts, with substantial delegation of decision making across layers. Such hierarchical delegation of decision making creates problems of aligning...

We investigate an algorithmic model based first of all on Luhmann?s description of how so-cial order may originate [N. Luhmann, Soziale Systeme, Frankfurt/Main, Suhrkamp, 1984, pp. 148-179]. In a basic ?dyadic? setting, two agents build up expectations during their interac-tion process. First,...

Apart from some specific cases, the equilibrium communication networks are quite complex despite our … simple one-dimensional description of preference heterogeneity. In general, strategic communication networks cannot be …

This paper endogenizes the choice between any type of trade agreement -- Customs Union (CU), Free Trade Agreement (FTA) or Most Favored Nation (MFN) agreement-- and shows how the presence of Preferential Trade Agreements (i.e. CU or FTA) affects the possibility of free trade. The dynamic nature...
