Alliance Formation and Coercion in Networks
This paper presents a game-theoretic model of network formation, which allows agents to enter bilateral alliances and to extract payo¤s from enemies. Each pair of agents creates a surplus of one, which allies divide in equal parts. If agents are enemies, then the agent with more allies obtains a larger share of the surplus. I show that Nash equilibria are of two types. First, a state of utopia,...
متن کاملsimulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water
abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
Alliance Formation, Alliance Expansion, and the Core
This article presents a simple cooperative game theory representation of alliance formation and expansion to counter a conventional threat along the allies’ borders. Mutual defense gains, derived from allying, arise from interior borders that no longer require protection. Spatial and locational attributes of the allies are crucial when identifying the gains from mutual defense and the distribut...

Individuals may want to work together 3 across organisation boundaries but do not have much prior 4 knowledge about potential partners. The semantic web and 5 its associated new standards appear very promising as can6 didates to support a new generation of virtual organisa...
متن کاملBalancing Exploration and Exploitation in Alliance Formation
Do firms balance exploration and exploitation in their alliance formation decisions and, if so, why and how? We argue that absorptive capacity and organizational inertia impose conflicting pressures for exploration and exploitation with respect to the value chain function of alliances, the attributes of partners, and partners’ network positions. Although path dependencies reinforce either explo...
