Further, in recent years there has been a rise in the number of firms participating in collaborative efforts. In this paper, we show conditions under which a graph with an arbitrary degree sequence is admitted as a stable firm collaboration graph.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-08-20T13:04:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "collaborative network formation", "spatial oligopolies", "arbitrary degree sequence", "network formation game", "stable firm collaboration graph" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 20, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1108.4114L" } } }
