Abstract
Various social networks share prominent features: clustering, rightskewed degree distribution, segregation into densely connected com-
munities. We build network formation game rationalizing these features with signal-extraction benet by network participants. The players build network to exchange their private signals on the relevant state. We show that a family of Nash equilibrium networks possesses the above-mentioned prominent features of real networks. We show, furthermore, that networks with these features are efficient.
