The goalof a node v is to minimize its private costs, i.e., the sum (SUM-game) ormaximum (MAX-game) of communication distances from v to all othernodes plus a fixed price α > 0 if it decides to be a gateway. Between gatewaysthe communication distance is 0, and gateways also improve othernodes’ distances by behaving as shortcuts. For the SUM-game, we showthat for α ≤ n − 1, the price of anarchy is Θ (n/√α) and in this rangeequilibria always exist. In range α ∈ (n−1, n(n−1)) the price of anarchyis Θ(√α), and for α ≥ n(n − 1) it is constant. For the MAX-game, weshow that the price of anarchy is either Θ (1 + n/√α), for α ≥ 1, orelse 1. Given a graph with girth of at least 4α, equilibria always exist.Concerning the dynamics, both games are not potential games. For theSUM-game, we even show that it is not weakly acyclic.","lang":"eng"}],"doi":"10.1007/978-3-319-13129-0_36","series_title":"LNCS","citation":{"chicago":"Abshoff, Sebastian, Andreas Cord-Landwehr, Daniel Jung, and Alexander Skopalik. “Multilevel Network Games.” In <i>Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Web and Internet Economics (WINE)</i>, 435–40.
