Social connectedness and local contagion
We study a coordination game among agents in a network. The agents choose whether to
take action (eg adopting a new technology) in an uncertain environment that yields …

On the coordination efficiency of strategic multi-agent robotic teams
MM Vasconcelos, B Touri - 2023 62nd IEEE Conference on …, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We study the problem of achieving decentralized coordination by a group of strategic
decision-makers choosing to engage or not in a task in a stochastic setting. First, we define a …

[PDF][PDF] Anticipatory random walks: A dynamic model of crowdfunding
We provide a model of all-or-nothing crowdfunding in which consumers arrive sequentially
and make decisions about whether to pledge or not. Pledging is not costless, and hence …
