内容摘要：We study the problem of designing network sequentially and myopically when agents play a complementary network game. In each period, the planner connects two unlinked agents in the network formed by previous stages to achieve the highest equilibrium welfare. We show that the network formation process is unique in the sense that the formed network is quasi-complete in each period regardless the strength of complementary effect. This result refines the predition of (globally) efficient network in the literature by discriminating nested split graphs. Finally, we show that when the strength of network effect is small and the total number of links is large, both myopically and globally efficent network is quasi-complete.
