Games on Networks

Yves Zenou and Matthew Jackson

No 9127, CEPR Discussion Papers from Centre for Economic Policy Research

Abstract: 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 theoretic modeling, but also include some discussion of analyses of peer effects, as well as applications to diffusion, employment, crime, industrial organization, and education.
