Abstract

This paper investigates the algebraic formulation and Nash equilibrium of competitive diffusion games by using semi-tensor product method, and gives some new results. Firstly, an algebraic formulation of competitive diffusion games is established via the semi-tensor product of matrices, based on which all the fixed points (the end of the diffusion process) are obtained. Secondly, using the algebraic formulation, a necessary and sufficient condition is presented for the verification of pure-strategy Nash equilibrium. Finally, an illustrative example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the obtained new results.

The reason why we choose this kind of diffusion process is that it captures the simple fact that being closer to player’s initial seeds will result in adopting that specific player’s type.
