Structure of Core-Periphery Communities

Junwei Su, Peter Marbach

It has been experimentally shown that communities in social networks tend to have a core-periphery topology. However, there is still a limited understanding of the precise structure of core-periphery communities in social networks including the connectivity structure and interaction rates between agents. In this paper, we use a game-theoretic approach to derive a more precise characterization of the structure of core-periphery communities.
