Analysis and interventions in large network games

F Parise, A Ozdaglar - Annual Review of Control, Robotics, and …, 2021 - annualreviews.org
We review classic results and recent progress on equilibrium analysis, dynamics, and
optimal interventions in network games with both continuous and discrete strategy sets. We …

Centrality measures in networks

F Bloch, MO Jackson, P Tebaldi - Social Choice and Welfare, 2023 - Springer
We show that prominent centrality measures in network analysis are all based on additively
separable and linear treatments of statistics that capture a node's position in the network …

Targeting interventions in networks

A Galeotti, B Golub, S Goyal - Econometrica, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
We study games in which a network mediates strategic spillovers and externalities among
the players. How does a planner optimally target interventions that change individuals' …

Graphon games

F Parise, A Ozdaglar - Proceedings of the 2019 ACM Conference on …, 2019 - dl.acm.org
We propose a way to approximate games played over networks of increasing size by using
the graph limiting concept of graphon. To this end, we introduce the new class of graphon …

Centrality measures for graphons: Accounting for uncertainty in networks

M Avella-Medina, F Parise, MT Schaub… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2018 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
As relational datasets modeled as graphs keep increasing in size and their data-acquisition
is permeated by uncertainty, graph-based analysis techniques can become computationally …

Learning in a post-truth world

M Mostagir, J Siderius - Management Science, 2022 - pubsonline.informs.org
Misinformation has emerged as a major societal challenge in the wake of the 2016 US
elections, Brexit, and the COVID-19 pandemic. One of the most active areas of inquiry into …

On the effect of triadic closure on network segregation

R Abebe, N Immorlica, J Kleinberg, B Lucier… - Proceedings of the 23rd …, 2022 - dl.acm.org
The tendency for individuals to form social ties with others who are similar to themselves,
known as homophily, is one of the most robust sociological principles. Since this …

Graphon games: A statistical framework for network games and interventions

F Parise, A Ozdaglar - Econometrica, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
In this paper, we present a unifying framework for analyzing equilibria and designing
interventions for large network games sampled from a stochastic network formation process …

Blind inference of eigenvector centrality rankings

TM Roddenberry, S Segarra - IEEE Transactions on Signal …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider the problem of estimating a network's eigenvector centrality only from data on
the nodes, with no information about network topology. Leveraging the versatility of graph …

Social inequality and the spread of misinformation

M Mostagir, J Siderius - Management Science, 2023 - pubsonline.informs.org
We study the spread of misinformation in a social network characterized by unequal access
to learning resources. Agents use social learning to uncover an unknown state of the world …
